AMC pulls “anti-trans” documentary ‘No Way Back’ from cinemas following backlash
No Way Back: The Reality Of Gender-Affirming Care following criticism.The film is described as the “definitive documentary on detransition” and follows five young people who discuss the medical care they’ve received for gender dysphoria.According to a press release, it takes a “non-religious, non-political, and non-ideological look on the subject of gender-affirmative medical practises, the risks and side effects of cross-sex hormones, surgeries, and the long-term health implications of gender medicalisation”.Following the announcement earlier this month that AMC theaters would screen the film from June 21, LGBTQ+ organisation The Queer Trans Project called for people to protest against screenings of the “anti-trans” film to combat “the spread of misinformation” about gender-affirming care. A Change.org petition received over 2,500 signatures.On Saturday (June 17), The Queer Trans Project shared that their efforts were successful on Instagram.
