Background information
The Transition from Girl to BOI.
"Both the documentary and the book 'Boi. Song of a wanderer', are the result of an ongoing experiment with the capacities of the photographic medium to document, communicate, construct identity and above all as a means that allows for imaginary and creating new realities.
'Boi. Song of a wanderer' was originally aimed to relate the living conditions of individuals in countries where political and religion issues hamper everyday life. But it became the story of an inner struggle, a quest for who one really is.
'Boi. Song of a wanderer' is the story of a girl who wanted to be boy. It keeps tracks of Nitzan's life and body changes, following her through her journey all over the world. But most important it shows us the surprisingly beautiful direction uncertain steps can take.
Nitzan unveils who she really is: an amazingly attractive and vigorous young man." (© Foam)
