Predating Boys Don’t Cry by over a decade, Sergio Toledo’s Vera is an unflinching look at a young Brazilian poet (loosely based on the real-life trans poet Anderson Bigode Herzer) coming to terms with his trans masculinity in a Brazilian society that does not understand nor respect his wants and desires. While the film is a product of its time, it was lauded within the trans community and played in early trans and LGBTQ-focused film festivals in the years after its 1986 release. (Caden Mark Gardner)
