The book is an intimate journey of a cisgender photographer, motivated to know some individual and daily aspects of eleven people, five transgender MtF, five transgender FtM, and one non-binary, united only by the Sicilian territory in which they live, but profoundly different from each other.
In research that has no didactic purpose and even less of synthesis, Avarino Caracò tells the details of his meeting with these people without hiding the difficulties and the deep emotions that are triggered within the relationships that are created. Against every stereotype, against every morbidly sexualized vision of gender identity, the visual path of this book underlines the elements of everyday life, accompanying us towards a profound reflection on "normality" and existence. The book closes with an afterword by Cirus Rinaldi, associate professor of sociology at the Department of Cultures and Society of the University of Palermo, with a profound reflection on the concept of transition.
