Review of Suited (2016) by Katy K — 24 Oct 2017

I went with a friend this weekend to Bindle and Keep while we were in New York City. She made reservations to get fitted for a custom suit while we were there to see Hello Dolly and I had no idea what this particular place was all about.

She's fairly androgynous and lesbian identified, but I am gender non-binary and a therapist that has been working with transgender folks for 19 years. So I was blown away by the experience of going there and the way we were treated.

So I promptly started googling only to find out about their focus on serving the trans community and about his movie. So in between sessions, still jetlagged since our plane didn't get home till 2 AM last night, I have been blown away by this movie! It's such a tearjerker, so inspiring and makes me want to turn right back around to go get my own rock 'n' roll suit! The individual stories are ones that I hear and see and frankly feel on a day-to-day basis but the filmmaker did a great job at making this a fresh engaging way to go inside the lives of these brave folks who are struggling to just find a way to be present and at last feel good enough to take a risk with the mirror.

Bravo/a!!!
