BBC World News - Transgender: Back to Jamaica

Follow two transgender friends on a life-changing journey to Jamaica.

As part of the BBC's Identity Season we follow two transgender friends on a life-changing journey to reveal their new identities to their families in Jamaica.

Steffan and Romario are two transgender friends who take a life-changing journey from Britain to reveal their new identities to their families in Jamaica, where they both grew up. Jamaica is one of the most transphobic places in the world. Despite the potential risk to their safety and without knowing what reaction they'll get from their relatives, the friends are determined to be open about who they are.
