Summary
:
Set in a disturbingly transfigured Montreal in the year 2050, VALID is a monologue delivered over the span of eight hours by Christelle, a 70-year-old trans woman forced to live as a man in order to survive. Speaking to her captor, an ever-more powerful AI, she turns the tables and mounts her own revolution by showing her truest self. Part auto-fiction, part dystopic speculation on an all-too-possible future characterized by corporate power, ecological collapse, and political havoc, VALID is an ambitious work that is as much philosophical as it is confessional.
