Plot

Transkids' follows four Israeli teenagers who go through transition in a militaristic society in which teenagers go to the army right after high-school, and religion plays a very strong role in people's identity and is not separated from the state.

Sinekatalog’s take

A documentary following four Israeli teenagers going through transition in a militarized, religious society. Their stories show how personal identity meets national expectation. A candid, humane watch for those interested in youth and gender identity.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
