The American film "Danish Girl" is a film based on the true story of transgender people.
In Copenhagen in 1926, the landscape painter Aina and the figure painter Gerda married.
Because the model missed the appointment, Aina was persuaded by Gerda, put on high stockings and skirts, dressed up as a female model, and temporarily saved the scene, so that Gerda successfully completed the work of the female model.
However, Aina's unintentional male and female costumes evoked the "Lily" in his heart.
This story is so unique, so heart-wrenching. A man with a happy marriage, a thriving career, a normal and happy life, he suddenly realizes his true soul, no one forces him, the choice is in his own hands, what to sacrifice, what to lose, he knows everything, but he has made a choice.
The film begins to show Aina's love of women's clothing, completely without any foreshadowing, and the hobby is very strong.
Aina knew that he had a feminine side when he was young, and when he found that he put a female petticoat under his shirt, he began to wear women's clothes and went out in a natural way.
He became the goddess of inspiration for Gerda, making Gerda famous. For Gerda, she thought it was all about a game.
But Aina is not a game. As the sleeping woman's personality ignited, he gradually disgusted his own man's body.
He wants to play the real "Lily" in his life, and find the "Lily" not only in art, but also the body of a woman in his own life.
Gerda didn't think about it either, and just wanted him to play "Lily" artistically, but Aina tried to find her "Lily" in real life.
His unintentionality became a shock bomb he dropped in his life. How can he continue to love his partner?
They remain inseparable from all kinds of social criticism and misunderstanding, and finally Gerda encourages Aina to become "Lily" completely.
In the second half of the film, the director just continues to let the plot go on quickly, after the first surgery, arguing with his wife, and then the second operation. Everything is to the point, to the end of his life, lack of deep accounting.
At the end of the film, Gerda's silk scarf is blown into the air by the wind, and her friend struggles to retrieve the silk scarf, and Gerda only says "let it fly".
The scarf flies higher and higher, farther and farther.
