In the summer of 2015, former US Marine and world record weightlifter Matt "Kroc" Kroczaleski was publicly outed as being transgender. The reaction was universal: her sponsors abandoned her, she was disowned by her parents, banned from competing, and she changed her name to "Janae". This film follows Janae as she attempts to find her place in society. Initially wanting to strip off the muscle and become a much smaller looking woman, she found herself unable to lose the muscle she so desperately gained. She now finds herself living one day as an alpha male and the next day as a delicate girl. Will Janae be able to handle her muscle relapses? Will her passage from being a male bring her the peace she's looking for? Will society accept a 250lbs muscular woman? Is her path personal redemption or physical and psychological disaster?
Leave your thoughts about Transformer.
| Original-CinLiam LaceyThe topical issue of gender indeterminacy is examined, not through the lens of moralizing or academic theory, but from one person’s vulnerable experience. |
| The Hollywood ReporterJohn DeForeFollowing Matt through a public transition and capturing its unique set of complications, Del Monte offers a warm portrait of a thoroughly winning subject. |
| Los Angeles TimesKatie WalshTransformer beautifully captures the process of Janae crafting her own sense of femininity, unique to who she was and who she continues to be. |
| L.A. WeeklyAlan ScherstuhlThe film might prove more illuminating and instructive if it examined more reactions to Kroc’s flowering from within the lifting world. Overall, though, Del Monte has crafted a warm portrait of the birth of a woman from a man who found that he had even more strength than he ever realized. |
