A 5-part series about transsexual Jörg Lüscher, who becomes Jil Lüscher. I followed the man from Aargau for over a year, from his coming out to his gender reassignment surgery. With this series, I wanted to bring the taboo subject of transsexuality closer to viewers and demonstrate that people who live in the wrong body are not freaks, but human beings like the rest of us. The attached video file is the 4th part of the series. The entire series can be viewed on the Tele M1 and Tele Züri websites.
