Consider (2013)

Tay is a teenage "kathoey," a relatively well-tolerated transgender group. Kathoeys take on traditional female roles, and are sometimes described as a third sex. Interviews with sympathetic fellow students and a teacher who is also a kathoey demonstrate the level of acceptance of his orientation at his Christian school Saint Joseph Mueang-Ake. This becomes most triumphantly clear when Tay appears at a school Christmas party in a beautiful red dress. But as his tearful mother explains, a single intolerant and violent teacher drove him to attempt suicide. This documentary peers into the daily life of Tay and those around them to paint a complex observation of how an individual's gender is articulated in Thai society.
