Growing Up Coy
When 6-year-old Coy Mathis was told she could not use the girls’ bathroom at her Colorado public school, her parents decided to fight back against the ban placed on their trans daughter. With the legal help of Michael Silverman, formerly of the Transgender Legal Defense and Education Fund, the Mathis family launched a landmark civil rights case and were thrust into the media spotlight. Director Eric Juhola and Producer Jeremy Stulberg respectfully capture a family that is reconciling the challenge of being in front of the cameras while trying to protect the rights and privacy of their child.
