After his film was featured in our monthly screening spotlight, we met with documentary filmmaker Carl Collison for a live Q&A session to discuss his work.

Still My Child follows the journeys of three South African fathers as they navigate fear, confusion, social stigma, and community discrimination before ultimately arriving at a place of unconditional love and acceptance for their transgender children. Through intimate conversations and personal reflection, the film offers a moving portrait of parenthood, transformation, and the emotional labor of unlearning deeply rooted beliefs.

Directed by Carl Collison for Beyond the Margins, the documentary approaches these stories with tenderness and honesty, foregrounding the voices of families often left out of broader conversations on gender identity and belonging.
