Tintenfischalarm plot

In this film we say Alex, who was born intersex (here the body shows both male and female characteristics). Alex's parents have made the decision to raise Alex into a woman, which also involved surgery and the administration of hormones. At age 12, Alex has been told she's more feminine than masculine, which hasn't made things any easier for her. We follow Alex for three years, between 2002 and 2005, during which she makes the decision to be male after all, and undergoes this process.
