Description

When Kim was younger, he never felt comfortable in his own skin. Being assigned as female at birth and raised a girl, his childhood was full of bullying and traumatic experiences. It wasn't until he started diving headfirst into all sorts of queer and transgender reading material that Kim came to the ultimate decision that he was meant to be a man, and began the female-to-male transformation process almost immediately. Finding Kim is entwined with insightful interviews with members and activists in the LGBTQ community and follows our titular character through his day-to-day life to his eventual life-changing surgery as he becomes who he always felt he was under the surface.
