Morty Diamond is a transgender writer, filmmaker and performance artist. Some of the primary ideas in his work are deconstruction of gender, power dynamics, and erotic methodology. His newest feature film Trans Entities: The Nasty Love of Papi' and Wil, a "docu-porn" about a hot, pervy and loving couple is currently premiering around the world. Visit him at www.mortydiamond.com
Trans Entities: The Nasty Love of Papi and Wil is a unique, sexy, thought provoking and above all touching portrait of a real transgender couple, Papi and Wil, who open themselves up to the camera like you have never seen before. They are a perverted, loving, polyamorous couple who identify as Trans Entities, a word they have coined to describe their gender identity.
Its the best transporn film Ive ever seen, mostly because of the way we get to know the couple through Diamonds intimate, interview-driven story. Tristan Taormino
