Butterflies in Berlin: Diary of a Soul Split in Two

Overview

Alex feels like a girl trapped in the body of a man and, in 1933, she moves to Berlin, the capital of sexual freedom, hoping to find her place in the world. Thanks to an encounter with Doctor Magnus Hirschfeld, Alex becomes the first transsexual in history to undergo surgery. Unfortunately, this happens in parallel with the rise to power of National Socialism.
