Traditional
Primary

Secondary
The film portrays transsexual characters and themes in a problematic light. Gender transition is framed as a controversial medical practice central to a murder trial, with a transsexual woman's identity intrinsically linked to the crime. The narrative sensationalizes the topic, using it as a dramatic device for a legal thriller rather than offering an affirming or empathetic perspective.
