SYNOPSIS

Tammie is a young trans woman who longs for love and a 'normal' life, but in a world full of prejudice, that feels anything but self-evident. As anti-trans sentiments rise and positive representations of trans lives remain rare, she wonders if a future with love, stability, and perhaps even a family is also possible for her. In her search for a boyfriend, Tammie talks with other (trans) women about dating, relationships, rejection, and self-image. She meets women who lead lives she hardly dared to imagine: a loving relationship, a family, or happiness outside of romantic love. As she sees herself in their stories, she is confronted with her own beliefs and fears about love and visibility. 'Tammie is Looking for a Boyfriend' is an intimate documentary about desire, representation, and the search for connection in a society where trans people are too often reduced to stereotypes or a social debate. Through personal conversations, vulnerable moments, and observational scenes, a hopeful portrait emerges of someone who slowly learns to believe that love might be possible for her too.
