A Search for Self

Finding Bobbi tells the story of actor Bobbi Charlton's long, courageous journey through gender dysphoria. After half a life in the wrong body, Bobbi transitioned at the age of 53. This transgender woman's incredible story is funny, heartbreaking and ultimately life-affirming. It chronicles her experiences as a child, adolescent and adult struggling to understand and express who she really was at a time when there was no real acceptance of transgender people in mainstream culture. The film follows her return to the stage after a 23-year absence, playing Aunt Eller in a gender-bending production of the Rodgers and Hammerstein classic Oklahoma! at the Oregon Shakespeare Festival.
