Evolution 4.2 (2005)
Evolution 4.2 is a short experimental
pseudo reenactment documentary
that reflections the life challenges
a transsexual must face. It invites
the audience not only to observe
one of the most delicate issues a
transsexual may face - the fear of
dating - but it challenges the
audience to emotionally participate.
By bridging a glossy narrative with a
second layer offering a glimpse of

the audience is almost forced into
emotionally engaging with the
character’s experience.
