Soon after New York state passed a 2015 law that health insurance should cover transgender-related care and services, director Tania Cypriano and producer Michelle Hayashi began bringing their cameras behind the scenes at New York’s Mount Sinai Hospital, where this remarkable documentary captures the emotional and physical journey of surgical transitioning. Lending equal narrative weight to the experiences of the center’s groundbreaking surgeon Dr. Jess Ting and those of his diverse group of patients, BORN TO BE perfectly balances compassionate personal storytelling and fly-on-the-wall vérité. It’s a film of astonishing access—most importantly into the lives, joys, and fears of the people at its center.

In the summer of 2023, hardly any other topic caused as much discussion as this one: Rammstein singer Till Lindemann is allegedly responsible for sexual assaults. Several women had reported to NDR and the “Süddeutsche Zeitung” newspaper about alleged transgressions. There was talk of a kind of organized recruitment system for sexual acts with the Rammstein frontman. However, the public prosecutor's office dropped its investigation after a short time.

Was it simply about sex, drugs and rock'n'roll or did the musician not accept boundaries?
