WORLD PREMIERE AT ANTHOLOGY FILM ARCHIVES – DISTRIBUTED BY ITV GRANADA

Winner of a Fabulous Films for Young Adults honor from the American Library Association, Odd Ones Out documents four years in the courageous lives of three transgender teens living on the streets of NYC, Naomi, David and Tot, as they transition into adulthood and face life-altering events.

Family intolerance, abuse, homelessness, sex work, violence and harassment in their schools and community are only the backdrop for a dramatic story of acceptance and rejection, identity and change. Through candid verité footage and home video diaries, this documentary is a unique and intimate look at the most tender time in the lives of these three young people as they struggle with the universal search for self and of being found. It’s a coming of age story about trying to fit in while fighting against society’s rigid boundaries. With Naomi, David and Tot, you will reconsider the definitions of male and female and then discard them as you grow closer to three teenagers who just want to grow up.

Distributed for broadcast by ITV Granada. Education distribution by The Cinema Guild.
