The Two Lives of Li Ermao

02nd January, 2020

A search for identity, a struggle for love, a fight for survival. 

This tragic film needed a particularly sensitive touch to deliver the drama and pathos of fifteen years in the life of a would-be transexual in the Chinese city of Shenzhen. With so many different formats of film and sound to cope with, the final product was a tour de force and I am grateful to the whole OnSight team. - André Singer Executive Producer, ’The Two Lives of Li Ermao’.

Follow the journey of Li Ermao in this emotional documentary, filmed over 17 years across Southern China, The Two Lives of Li Ermao is the intimate and heart wrenching story of Li Ermao, a transgender migrant worker transitioning from male to female, then back to male- after battling with infection, discrimation and a traumatic childhood.
