What is it like to stand out from the crowd? What is it like to come to terms with your sexuality? What is it like to undergo the first sex reassignment surgery? Get on an intense and engaging journey that explores the subject of gender change with Le Premiere of The Year The Danish Girl on Sony Le PLEX HD.

Based on the 2000 fictional novel of the same name, which was written by renowned American writer and editor, David Ebersh off, the film is based on the true story of the Danish painter, Einar Wegener, as he explores his sexual identity despite the strong societal stigma. It also explores the strong bond he shared with his wife Gerda Wegener who supported him through every step.

The married couple live in an apartment painted by the great Danish artist Vilhelm Hammershøi. One fine morning, Gerda urges her husband to fill in for a life model for her portrait of a dancer. Lili laughingly pulls on a pair of tights and gets into a dainty pair of ballet slippers for his wife and that becomes the turning point in his life.

The film grossed $64.2 million worldwide against a budget of $15 million. The movie received positive reviews from critics, particularly for the acting and sensitive handling of a difficult subject matter. David Ebershoff, Author of The Danish Girl, “I believe everybody needs to be themselves and embrace themselves just the way they are.

I also believe that everyone should stand up for what they believe in and live a life that they want to live which is also the underlying message that the movie gives out. A lot of people globally have read the book and have also watched the film, I am sure both have created a great impact on viewers and the reader.”

Lucinda Coxon’s insightful screenplay beautifully brings the book to life. So get ready to witness one of the most epic drama revolving around gender reassignment with The Danish Girl from 1pm and 9 pm on March 26 only on Sony Le PLEX HD.
