About the event
Major! Annalise Ophelian, United States, 90:00, English [D] Major! explores the life and campaigns of Miss Major Griffin-Gracy, a formerly incarcerated Black transgender elder and activist who fought for the rights of trans women of colour for over 40 years. At the centre of her activism was her fierce advocacy for her girls, trans women of colour who have survived police brutality and incarceration in men's jails and prisons.
Through first-person narration and innovative cultural storytelling, Major! seeks to create a living, breathing history of a community's struggle and resilience, as seen and experienced by those who lived it.
We lost Miss Major in October 2025, so now is a perfect time to reflect on her work and honour her memory.
