- "It's just as important to feed the soul as it is to feed the body" is the refrain by stylist and gender-queer activist Madin Lopez. As a teenager growing up in a broken home, Madin ended up in the foster care system, only to end up on the streets after being rejected by those who were supposed to care for them when they would not conform to traditional gender norms. This experience taught Madin the difficulties homeless teens face, especially those who are transgender. Now an adult, Madin has made it their life's mission to give back by offering pro-bono beauty services to LA's LGBTQ youth, helping them to outwardly express their true identity in an effort to make them feel confident in their true selves. In 'Transformation', a one-hour documentary special and accompanying viral short we'll meet Madin Lopez and find out why their mission is so important and their services much needed by many Los Angeles youth.
- TRANSFORMATION is a documentary about a group of transgender teens and young adults struggling to find the resources, safety, and confidence to express their gender identity. With 45% of young transgender people having reportedly attempted suicide in the United States alone, non-binary stylist Madin Lopez has made it their business to provide life-altering, gender-affirming makeovers. Afterwards, these individuals are hopefully able to be their true and best selves, looking on the outside how they've always felt on the inside.
