Woke (2017–2018): Season 2, Episode 7 - Le Comprendre - full transcript
The G-Spot is accused of transphobia by a trans collective. They have organized a joint press conference with Thibaut. Hicham is shocked to discover that Elijah knew about it.
I don't believe this!
GAYS AND LESBIANS
COMPLICIT IN TRANSPHOBIA
What is all that?
I did the impossible.
I made both transphobics
and a trans group mad.
Do we know a trans group did it?
Yes.
They posted it online.
It's over the trans
identity debate.
I don't get it.
As usual,
Thibaut's behind it.
With his new association.
Action Rainbow.
They're holding a press
conference with the trans group.
Did you know?
I knew it was happening.
And you had no problem with it?
Maybe they're right.
About what?
Attacking us like this?
So they put up a few fliers.
I don't get it.
What about you?
You couldn't take a minute
before organizing your debate?
We don't know why they did it!
Listen instead of accusing them
of being rude.
They vandalize us
and it's our fault?
Are you listening to me?
They have a right to be angry!
If you don't get that,
don't bother.
Don't talk to me about
the poster. I won't do it.
WOKE
UNDERSTANDING
Was this move aimed
at shedding light
on the subject?
We're sick of being shown
in a bad light.
We're mistreated every day
by doctors and the government.
We feel like Point G
is supporting that.
Can you tell me what
your problem is with this debate?
Trans people in France are
treated in a very prescriptive
and belittling way.
So-called specialists,
psychiatrists, endocrinologists,
surgeons...
They're all part
of an official team
that makes decisions
based on their prejudices.
It's called the SoFECT.
Our feelings and experiences
aren't taken into account.
So you're shocked that Point G
asked the SoFECT
to join in the debate?
Not shocked. Angry.
We believe the focus
should be on those affected.
It's like talking about
homosexuality in the 70s to a priest,
a doctor and a shrink.
We don't want to repeat that.
We can't let others
speak on our behalf.
It's the only way to advance.
Excuse me.
Can I say something?
Maria, this is Hicham. He's
with Point G but he's a friend.
I came here on behalf
of Point G, to listen to you,
and say that honestly, we just
wanted to do the right thing.
But your reaction shows
we made a mistake.
So if you want
to take over organizing the
debate or other events, please do.
Thank you.
Things may work out after all.
Stay tuned!
We'll call tomorrow
about the meeting with CI.
OK. Have a good night.
You, too.
No hard feelings?
You were right about this.
On June 6th, at 18:30,
Hicham said I was right.
Thanks for coming.
You should've said
we were making a mistake.
Once you get going,
you're hard to stop.
No kidding.
Buy you a drink?
Sure.
I can't wait to
shoot the poster.
Me neither!
- Oh, no!
- What?
That's Thibaut's ex.
What's the problem?
It's complicated.
Hicham,
you staying over tonight?
It's funny you're a bookseller.
I'm happy I ran into you,
and to see
you're better.
How's Philippe?
Fine, last I heard.
Your visit made him
completely paranoid.
He became a real pain.
I heard there were some problems
at Point G. Did you know?
Yeah, sort of.
He dumps
you and you come see me?
How could I know you were here?
Why do you talk to me
like I did something to you?
- You're the one who left.
- You can't say that.
I just needed you.
I loved you,
not your dead brother.
Asshole.
Hey, what are you doing?
Oh, it's you again.
What are you doing?
What are you doing?
Go slow.
Go slow, okay?
Can I ask you a question?
Why aren't you mad?
Dammit. I have a ton of pimples.
I forgot my testosterone again.
It'll take two minutes.
When did you start that?
When I was 18.
I was still a baby at 18.
You knew you were gay?
Yeah, more or less.
I mean, yes.
That's why I was
surprised about you.
Sexual orientation and gender
identity are two different things.
I spent hours trying
to change that.
They and my engineering school
still use my old name.
OK.
- Ready?
- Let's go.
Stand back-to-back.
There.
I think we could put it here.
You okay?
Yeah, I'm fine.
Did you talk to Vincent?
Yeah. We argued.
Really?
Why?
Things ended well for you, no?
Yeah.
But...?
Nothing. I...
If Elijah can forgive,
so can you.
Hang on...
We were talking about Vincent.
Were we?
I thought we were done.
- Sure...
- No, there's nothing to say.
I looked at him and thought,
"Why was I so obsessed with him?"
I was thinking of something.
The summer you hit on me,
when we met,
- were you still with him?
- What if I was?
You can be in love without being
in a bourgeois relationship.
Yeah.
But listening to you,
everything was great
before Marc died.
Elijah: Goodnight Hicham:
Good night to you too. I...
I'm thinking of you.
What happened?
Tomorrow.
Let's talk tomorrow.
OK.
