DESCRIPTION:The groundbreaking Cuban film “In the Wrong Body” (En El Cuerpo 
 Equivocado) made its United States premiere last November. The 2010 
 documentary — by Cuban filmmaker Marilyn Solaya — chronicles the story 
 of Mavi Susel, the first transgender woman to receive a sex reassignment 
 operation in Cuba in 1988.\n\nMavi’s stigmatization as a youth, the pain 
 of discrimination and abuse, is common for the transgender community. 
 Cuba’s revolution has made enormous gains for the people, including free 
 healthcare and education. Now, in recent years, Cuba is also carrying out a 
 public campaign against homophobia, and for respect for LGBT diversity. In 
 Cuba, sex-reassignment operations are free. \n\nThe film is a heartwarming 
 and inspiring documentary and helps to enlighten viewers of the urgent need 
 to oppose LGBT oppression and all forms of discrimination. (52 min., 
 Spanish with English subtitles)\n\nWatch the
