"If we are to be sinners, let us take our sins to talk it out with God ourselves."
This documentary-style performance aims to raise questions and invites the audience to explore the life of a "Muslim transgender woman." It delves into how being both "transgender" and "Muslim" subjects her to judgment and suppression from her family and a society deeply rooted in religious beliefs. Why is she deemed a sinner, and what reasons lie behind her continued faith in God?
Reflecting real-life experiences and the power between the lines of teachings,
Performed by Aitarnik (Auss) Chitwiset, a Muslim transgender woman, gender rights advocate, and communication policy expert at the Think Forward Center, directed by Sirabhob (Raptor) Attohi, a queer artist and activist for democracy and gender diversity. Together, they aim to convey and lead everyone to explore the life and faith of a transgender woman suppressed under the patriarchal system.
We invite you to find the answers together in ‘مُخَنَّث Forgive me for I have sinned.’ In the end, who judges the transgender, "God" or "man"?
