Every Body tells the stories of three intersex individuals who have moved from childhoods marked by shame, secrecy, and non-consensual surgeries to thriving adulthoods. Actor and screenwriter River Gallo (they/them), political consultant Alicia Roth Weigel (she/they), and Ph.D. student Sean Saifa Wall (he/him) are now leaders in a fast-growing global movement advocating for greater understanding of the intersex community and an end to unnecessary surgeries. Woven into the story is a stranger-than-fiction case of medical abuse, featuring exclusive footage from the NBC News archives, which helps explain the modern-day treatment of intersex people.

Reviews

The Pink Lens

Ben Turner

The film makes much of the importance of visibility, ensuring that the public understands and can see real intersex people in the media.

Illustrated by personal photographs, documentary goes beyond an intimate portrait of growing-up difficulties faced by three people, and stresses their activism to stop binary surgeries and other medical and social interventions imposed on children.

By shining a light on these wonderful people, the film will help shatter cruelly damaging myths.

[A] moving and illuminating documentary...
