In “Lives on the Line,” from the series Transnational, VICE News correspondent Freddy McConnell travels the UK to hear from trans people living in limbo as they struggle to access healthcare. Some have waited years to get just an initial assessment for gender-affirming treatment, while others say they’ve been abandoned between stages of a surgical procedure. McConnell explores the impact of this neglect, and how it’s fueled by a wider culture war over trans rights.

This film originally aired on VICE News in 2021.
