Summary

Jane Noury lives with her family in rural New Jersey as she nears her high school graduation and prepares for college. A transgender teenager who came out around the age of 15, she is pursuing a career in modeling and acting.[1][2][3]

Production

As Noury began to pursue modeling, she and her mother met Jonathan C. Hyde at a brunch for competitors in a model search event.[4] Hyde had intended to make a film about the model search, but upon meeting Noury was inspired by her story and changed his plans.

Of the series Noury said to The Guardian, “This was never planned to happen. It was not supposed to be an Amazon show". “It is a transgender coming of age story but it’s also more about just the behind the scenes of my life and trying to figure out what I want as I get older.”[4]

Reception

Adrian Horton of The Guardian wrote, "The series offers a compassionate and understated window into a late adolescent experience still massively underrepresented on-screen."[4] Angie Han of The Hollywood Reporter wrote that it is "in many ways a win for representation, positioning the story of trans teen Jane and her family as a cuddly (and very overt) argument for supporting and protecting trans kids," but concluded that "the docuseries wants for depth and specificity."[6] Indiewire published a critical review of the series, with Kristen Lopez writing, "The problem is the entire affair, too often, feels like inspiration porn. Where the joy for the audience is going to be seeing how inspiring Jane is — and little else."[7]
