Abstract

MORETA VELAYOS, Francisco Ignacio et al. The Danish Girl (2015), the right to decide our own gender identity. Rev Med Cine [online]. 2020, vol.16, n.2, pp.111-118.  Epub Nov 02, 2020. ISSN 1885-5210.  https://dx.doi.org/10.14201/rmc2020162103109.

Although the right to decide our own gender identity is recognized as a Universal Human Right, trans people are still object to rejection and discrimination, which require the development of laws and regulations that guarantee our rights. In these laws are stated multiple aspects related to health and professionals should integrate them in our daily activity in General Practice Clinics.

From a historical perspective and the use of a film premiere, we encourage the debate about sexual identity, the trans phenomenon and legislation that protects people.

Keywords : gender identity; sexual orientation; transsexual; transgender; cinema.
