Sapir

Israel 2024, 70 min, Hebrew, Hebrew & English subtitles

Sapir Berman is part of the global revolution taking place today in professional sports all over the world in relation to the LGBTQ community. Sapir was born near Haifa, and began her career as a soccer player. She progressed at the highest speed, and at the age of 26 was appointed as a referee in the Premier League. Everything happened while she was still in the closet, without telling to anyone about her true dream. Then, one day she announced to everyone, I am a woman and always have been. And so began her long-standing struggle to continue refereeing, while going through the process of gender reassignment. Today, she is still the only referee among 20 male referees in the Premier League.
