The documentary of our VDay LA event
Watch post-screening Q&A session
Eve Ensler, Andrea James, Calpernia Addams and cast members attended a LOGO-sponsored screening of “Beautiful Daughters" in Hollywood tonight. The screening was followed by a Q&A session and refreshments.
The premiere of the original Logo documentary Beautiful Daughters is on 11 February, and Logo has now added a web page as part of their Real Momentum documentary series.
The documentary is a behind-the-scenes look at the first-ever all-transgender performance of Eve Ensler’s The Vagina Monologues. This benefit performance was put on as V-Day LA 2004 by Deep Stealth Productions and featured trans women from around the country.

The documentary about Deep Stealth Productions’ first-ever all-transgender performance of the Vagina Monologues has its world premiere at the Santa Fe Film Festival this weekend. Join Calpernia and other featured subjects in the film for this special event.
BEAUTIFUL DAUGHTERS is the first of Eve Ensler’s VAGINA MONOLOGUES performances to focus on transgender sex and transgender women. We meet 60 transgender women from all over the U.S. as they audition and rehearse for their MONOLOGUES performance, participate in one-on-one interviews and group discussions, and speak with utter frankness of their personal heartaches and triumphs.
A few discuss the supportive relationships that help sustain them. Others describe rejection, shaming and violence endured in childhood and beyond—lessons taught by families, schoolmates, teachers, friends and strangers that ?¢‚Ǩ?ìyou can’t be a gender defector.?¢‚Ǩ¬ù Several of the women discuss when and how to reveal your transgender identity to a loved one when you know that he or she might react with abandonment, anger, fear or hate.
Some of the women are already thoroughly out, and others, through the MONOLOGUES, are telling their stories for the first time. The film’s recurring topics include sex, love, loneliness, and the desire to create a global sisterhood and a more loving, less violent society.—Jeanette Alt
