Screening in celebration of 30th anniversary of the passing of homosexual law reform bill.
"Georgie Girl" takes an evocative look at the life of Georgina Beyer, a Māori transsexual, former sex worker, and the first transgendered person to be elected into national office in the world.
"This internationally lauded documentary, by Annie Goldson and Peter Wells, tells the story of Beyer's extraordinary and inspiring journey from sex worker to Member of Parliament for rural Wairarapa and handshakes with the Queen. Born George Bertrand, Georgina grew up on a Taranaki farm, before spreading her wings on the Auckland cabaret circuit. Subsequent events led her to the town of Carterton, where she became involved in local body, and then national, politics." – NZ On Screen
