A landmark film from Cuba entitled “In the Wrong Body” (“En el Cuerpo Equivocado”), produced in 2010, in Spanish with English subtitles, was directed by Marilyn Solaya.
The film tells the moving story of Mavi Susel, the first transgender person in Cuba to receive a sex reassignment operation in 1988.
This unique film documents the personal struggle of Cuban Mavi Susel for gender expression through sex reassignment surgery. It also provides a broader picture of the education and development of a scientific understanding of homophobia and its history, and the application of principles of true equality and democracy in socialist Cuba.
