Aravani Girl is a 53 minute award winning documentary film which looks at the lives of five teenage boys and follows their progression into womanhood. We follow the boys as they travel through a fascinating and colourful world from school days to snake dancing, prostitution, and finally tragedy.
All over India teenage boys want to change their sex. In Tamil Nadu sixteen year olds Palani and his friend Kartik have been taking every opportunity to dress in their sisters' saris.
The film is now available on DVD, and a preview can be seen at http://www.rajastudios.com.
