A boldly compassionate look at gender ambiguity. In 1994, Director Parris Patton drove a two-man crew to the corner of Santa Monica and La Brea Avenues in Hollywood, California. It was there that he met transsexual Stacey "Hollywood" Dean, beginning what was to become a four year chronicle of Stacey's odyssey into womanhood. Deep into his transformation, Stacey returns home to North Carolina hoping for, but not counting on, acceptance from his ultra-religious parents. CREATURE was broadcast on Cinemax in 2002
