Diary of a Woman is an intense psychological drama that navigates the profound inner turmoil of Alex Darkley, a middle-aged teacher whose descent into suicidal insanity is catalyzed by the haunting traumas of his early childhood and the societal rejection he faces due to his sexual ambiguity. Alex`s journey is a raw and unflinching exploration of gender identity, reflected through the lens of his transformation into Alexa, a pivotal shift that first brings euphoria but quickly spirals into isolation and despair. The narrative culminates in a harrowing suicide attempt, after which Alex is saved and finds solace in reconnecting with his girlfriend. However, the film leaves the audience questioning the permanence of this newfound happiness.
