An intimate portrait of Intersex individuals born with sex anatomy not typically male or female, across India, Brazil, and the USA. Through personal stories, the film exposes the ongoing human rights struggle against non-consensual surgeries performed on intersex children, while confronting the rigid binaries that shape our understanding of sex and gender. "Let Us Be" invites audiences to reconsider the norms imposed on bodies and identities, offering a reflection on autonomy, dignity, and the beauty of human diversity.
