Director Quinton Baker tells us out his film 'Trans Happiness is Real' in which a transgender activist takes to the streets of Oxford to fight anti-trans sentiments through graffiti.

The film is one of five films selected for Five Films for Freedom, running 17 – 28 March 2021 alongside BFI Flare, the LGBTIQ+ film festival.
