Here's our live conversation.

Houston Chronicle writes: “Appropriately, Gholipour frames his subjects as representatives of a society still in transition when it comes to noncisgender people. The families run into bigots, weaponized official incompetence and, in Shervin’s case, outright theft by their lawyer. Every step forward is halting, awkward and pointlessly cruel.”
THIS IS NOT ME plays at Asia Society Texas Center on Wednesday January 25 at 7pm. The film follows an intimate conversation with the filmmaker Saeed Gholipour and subjects Saman Ghazian and Shervin Ramezan.
