1:06:58Now PlayingFaludi, a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and former Wall Street Journal reporter, won the 1992 National Book Critics Circle Award for nonfiction for Backlash, her now classic reassertion of feminist tenets; in 1999 she assessed the state of American manhood in Stiffed. Now in perhaps her most personal book, Faludi investigates gender identity by telling the story of her father’s life. After years of estrangement, Faludi discovered in 2004 that her 76-year-old father was living in Hungary and had recently undergone gender confirmation surgery. Was this still the violent person she’d once known? If not, who was this parent? Her investigation takes her to places she never could have imagined.
