The essay analyzes Paul Preciado's film Orlando, My Political Biography, based on readings from the field of the Sociology of Differences. Inspired by the work of Virginia Woolf, Preciado presents a narrative where multiple non-binary figures take the name Orlando, exploring how the characters' collective and personal experiences blur together. This text aims to discuss the trans-historical narratives constructed by the film from a queer and post-colonial perspective.
