Come to hear about the story of a Vietnamese transgender girl. Jessica is a transgender girl from the Mekong river delta and now lives and works in Ho Chi Minh City. In her late twenties, Jessica has gone through a lot to be who she is today. Her life story, with the experience as a child recognizing her own gender identity, growing up suffering from family violence and school bullying, having the first feeling and intimate experience true to her sexual orientation, and the gender reassignment surgery, … will all be shared in the conversation. Joining Jessica in the panel discussion is celebrity actress Kim Khánh, who is working on a film project to capture the life of Jessica for the silver screen. The program will be conducted in Vietnamese
