Every Body by Julia Cohen official trailer and release date
Intersex activist River Gallo in Every Body by Julia Cohen (Focus Features)

Go beyond the binary.

Set to world premiere at Tribeca Festival, here is the official trailer for Every Body, a revelatory documentary investigation of the lives of intersex people from Academy Award®-nominated and Emmy-winning filmmaker Julia Cohen and in partnership with NBC News Studios

Every Body will be released in select theaters on June 30th, 2023.

The film tells the stories of three individuals who have moved from childhoods marked by shame, secrecy, and non-consensual surgeries to thriving adulthoods after each decided to set aside medical advice to keep their bodies a secret and instead came out as their authentic selves. Actor and screenwriter River Gallo (they/them), political consultant Alicia Roth Weigel (she/they), and Ph.D. student Sean Saifa Wall (he/him) are now leaders in a fast-growing global movement advocating for greater understanding of the intersex community and an end to unnecessary surgeries. Woven into the story is a stranger-than-fiction case of medical abuse, featuring exclusive footage from the NBC News archives, which helps explain the modern-day treatment of intersex people.
