MAN MADE

A feature documentary film
Directed, Produced, and Filmed by T Cooper

Man Made upends the traditional documentary gaze… [and] resists the urge to turn the bodybuilders’ stories into narratives of simple, complete self-actualization; instead, it offers a testament to individual moments of joy—transformative in themselves.”
The New Yorker

Man Made offers a complex, nuanced view [of the trans experience], in a way that does a lot of heavy lifting for a small film.”
