We are trans, We love film, We are queer
We are friends, We love art, We are weird
We are groundbreaking, We are freaks, We are out
We are invisible, We are black, We are proud
We are perfomers, We are transsexuals, We party
We are transformers, We are seniors, We are history
We are transvestites, We are fluid, We are complex
We are differently abled, We are cute, We have sex
We are stories, We are alive, We are men
We are intersex, We are ‘normal’, now and then
We are creative, We are single, We are rare
We are provocative, We are femme, We are aware
We are so much more than this
and we are YOU
YOU + US = TranScreen
