Woman of…

Woman of…

Aniela Wesoły has been living a regular life: growing up in a small town, work, love, marriage, family. But she could never be herself entirely, as she was born in a male body. What will her choices be? Will she be able to sacrifice everything so she could live a normal life without fear? The story of her journey to gender reassignment is both an inspiring and difficult tale of fighting for yourself, the hardships of parenting, complicated relationships with your family and the people around you, but also about the beauty of true closeness.
