MYTH OF FATHER (2003).

Myth of Father
Director Paul Hills father, Jodie, is a transsexual woman. When she came out to Paul a few years ago, he began a journey to learn about who his father is. This stunning video documentary contrasts Pauls relationship to his father with the relationship of his father and her own dad. Candid interviews provide reflections on Jodies youth: "He seemed to live the normal life. He was into cars, he was into rock bands, he went into the Armymarriedchild" But no one really knew Jodie, as she explains, "No one knew who I was. I trashed relationships with everyone I knew, including my own son."
Myth of Father traces the emotions and viewpoints of family members as they deal with Bruce's tranformation into Jodie. As with most families, the layering is complex. Paul Hill...is an insightful filmmaker..."
