Greenwich Entertainment Acquires Rights To ‘Who I Am Not,’ Award-Winning Doc About Experience Of Intersex People
deadline.comEXCLUSIVE: Greenwich Entertainment is adding Who I Am Not to its roster of awards-contending documentaries.
The company has acquired U.S. rights to the film directed by Tünde Skovrán and executive produced by Oscar winner Patricia Arquette, which is shortlisted for the European Film Awards by the European Film Academy.
The documentary explores the stories of two intersex people – Sharon-Rose Khumalo, a finalist for Miss South Africa, and Dimakatso Sebidi, a male-presenting intersex activist. “In a world unaware of the existence of intersex individuals, Dimakatso survived genital mutilation as a child, while Sharon, a beauty queen, uncovered her hidden male genetics at the age of 21,” according to a release about the film. “As they navigate together the complexities of their identities and challenge deep-rooted societal taboos, their intertwined stories reveal the resilience and beauty of intersex lives hidden in plain sight.” Greenwich says Who I Am Not will have an awards-qualifying theatrical engagement November 10-16 at Laemmle NoHo in Los Angeles, followed by a broader theatrical release in Spring 2024.
The film will make its New York premiere at DOC NYC on Tuesday, November 14 with director Tünde Skovrán and film participant Sharon-Rose Khumalo in-person.
