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.
