Framing Agnes

The pseudonymous Agnes was a pioneering transgender woman who participated in an infamous gender health study conducted at UCLA in the 1960s. Her clever use of the study to gain access to gender-affirming healthcare led to her status as a fascinating and celebrated figure in trans history. FRAMING AGNES is a documentary that blends fiction and nonfiction, by using Agnes's story, along with others unearthed in long-shelved case files, to widen the frame through which trans history is viewed. Featuring a cast of trans performers, artists, and thinkers — including Angelica Ross (Pose), Jen Richards (Mrs. Fletcher), and Zackary Drucker (Transparent).
