Untitled documentary
Subject: Kay JANE BROWNING
Tiverton is a simple, idyllic and peaceful town in remote Devon. Life is slow, the
people are friendly and growing up in such a town is what most would dream
of. That is, apart from Kay Jane Browning.
Kay is 25, an enthusiastic writer and choreographer, and a man inhabiting a
woman's body. What happens when a Town that refuses to embrace change
is home to the physical embodiment of it, and what methods does Kay use to
fight prejudice?
This film will delve into Kay’s life, past and present, to see how he deals with
the challenges posed by being different in rural Britain, and how dance
provides the platform for, otherwise restricted, expression.
The Jeremy Kyle Show – November 2nd

Audience/ SUBMISSION
• Many young people feel afraid to reveal elements of their personal life
through fear of backlash or prejudice. Whilst this is almost always the
case - whatever the location - this is especially true in rural
communities. This film is primarily aimed at those that are yet to
overcome such obstacles, but also, those that have.
• There are numerous LGBT and Transgender film festivals in the UK and
abroad.
• The Sheffield Doc Fest is the UK’s largest documentary festival.
Why now?
Friday 30th
October: Transgender woman,
Tara Hudson, was moved from a male
prison to a female prison after public
outcry and political pressure.
9th
October 2015: Eastenders casts Riley
Carter Millington to play the soaps first
Transgender character and the first male
Transgender character on British Television.
6th
October 2015: Channel 4 airs the divisive
My Transgender Kid
Transgender equality is slowly becoming
part of the National zeitgeist
WHY me?
I met Kay in 2001. He, (then she) was trying to be part of the circle of
friends that I and her brother were part of.
What’s the point?
•Explore what it means to be Transgender in an
unaccepting environment
•Understand the environment and how to cope
within it
•Challenge perceptions
Thank you for listening
Any questions?
