“It’s really difficult finding a doctor who knows anything about sex chromosome variations. We’re just lost.” - Parent of an 11 year old with an X & Y variation

“We have to get past the stigma that accompanies sex chromosome variations. There really aren’t many of us who are willing to speak publicly about it.” - Male with an X & Y variation

“There needs to be a united voice that is loud and clear to tell our story and to counteract current misunderstanding about X & Y conditions.” - Female with an X variation

“We need something big in the area of public awareness. Not like a commercial and not like having famous people talking about us. We’ve all been hiding in the shadows for too long, I think.” - Male with an X & Y variation

“I’ll tell you what my dream is. I want to get this out where everyone will learn about us, like a movie or a big public service piece. I want to help people; especially the kids because they are treated poorly; people just don’t understand. Yeah, I’d like to see a movie about it.” - Male with an X & Y variation

“One of the most effective ways to bring about understanding is by education and awareness. A documentary film that shows candid real-life scenarios will go far to expose and explain what it is like to live with a genetic condition that nobody can see.” - Clinician and researcher who studies persons with X & Y variations

“When I hear your voice and see your world from the inside out, you become real. That's the power of film. Film can reach a thousand places at once with the power to influence minds, affect decision makers, and help create change. It's time for those of us in the X & Y community to be seen and heard from the inside out.” - Dianne Steinkraus, Producer/Writer
