Prodigal Sons
United States, 2008 | 86 min. | Dir. Kimberly Reed
It would be hard to invent a more fraught (or more complicated) documentary scenario: A former Montana high school football star who played quarterback when he was still a he returns to Big Sky Country for a class reunion—now named Kimberly, and with her girlfriend in tow. “How can you be a male and now you’re a female but yet you like females?” asks an old friend. That’s the easy encounter. There’s also a brother who had part of his brain removed after a car accident and has some hard feelings about his transgender sister, and, randomly, the discovery of family ties to Orson Welles and Rita Hayworth. About as thorny and discursive as it sounds.
