Abstract

Through an analysis of the movie “Love man love woman” directed by Nguyễn Trinh Thi en 2007, our paper will examine how the media performance allows to demystify the “sacred destiny” fiction of the transgender male mediums within worship of Mother-Goddesses in Vietnam. This analysis is part of the gender performance perspective as well as the semio-pragmatic approach of the media narrative. It is placed in a broader context of hegemonic culture and the mediatization of normative heterosexual discourse.
