I Am My Own Wife

Based on a true story, I Am My Own Wife tells the fascinating tale of Charlotte von Mahlsdorf, a German trans woman who managed to survive both the Nazi onslaught and the repressive East German Communist regime, and the playwright who becomes obsessed with her story. In a stunning tour de force performance, one actor brings nearly 40 characters to life for a riveting look at memory, truth, and what it takes to survive.
