The Ties That Bind

Rigorous in its thoughtful self-examination, this personal family portrait details director Diana Newton’s own journey toward acceptance alongside her sister Christine, a trans woman navigating the emotional and physical perils of coming out. Wrenching and eloquent, The Ties That Bind offers an inside look at living authentically amidst one Southern family’s own culture wars.
