Marina's life is thrown into turmoil following the death of her partner. Mourning the loss of the man she loved, she finds herself under intense scrutiny from those with no regard for her privacy.
No but the relatives kidnap the protagonist and put sello-tape around her head. This distortes her features grotesquely and is shown for a few minutes. No permanent harm. Just as there is no body horror chategory I thought I would mention it here
Not clear if the man who died left his family for his new love or they were already separated. But I think there was no cheating. Family treats it that way though
It was a while ago that I saw this movie but as far as I can remember, body dysmorphia is not a major focus of the film (nor dysphoria, which is a different thing). Marina (the main character, who is a trans woman) does not seem overly distressed by her body; the problems arise from other people's transphobia. The worst part is a scene where Marina is forced to undress for a medical examination as part of a police investigation - a very uncomfortable and humiliating scene.
This is a consistent theme throughout the film; there is a lot of transphobia and misgendering that the protagonist experiences. There is little correction when Marina is misgendered.
I am not sure why people have voted Yes to this. The main character, Marina, a trans woman, does NOT die. Her boyfriend Orlando, a cis man, dies near the beginning; I don't remember the movie establishing that Orlando was bisexual. Orlando is a man and Marina is a woman, so their relationship was a heterosexual one. I don't recall any other deaths of LGBT characters (sorry, I saw it months ago).
Only the slightest amount of blood from someone falling down stairs at the beginning of the film, bleeding from the head the scene after, and photos of that later on.
