A recent United Nations resolution encouraging States to “work to realise the enjoyment of the highest attainable standard of physical and mental health” for intersex people is widely being hailed as a victory for the intersex rights movement. There is, however, much work to be done – particularly when it comes to the treatment intersex persons are subjected to at the hands of medical professionals. This documentary, put together by the media advocacy organisation, Iranti, in association with Intersex South Africa, provides touching insights into the layered experiences of parents of intersex children when dealing with the South African healthcare system.
