For those with MRKH who aren’t aware, there’s a movie that stars a character being diagnosed with it! In the United States, it comes to theaters on February 2nd, 2024.

“What starts out as a more traditional coming-of-age 'losing your virginity' (quotes because I abhor that phrase) movie gets turned on its head," McGlynn further explains in a press release. “I was diagnosed with the reproductive disorder MRKH Syndrome when I was sixteen [...] My single mother was recovering from breast cancer and dealing with losing her breast and changing femininity, and I was learning I lost things I never even knew I lost in the first place, specifically, a uterus and my vagina, most of it anyway. Crazy, right? I know! I had to make a film about it.”
