A British film and TV studio has won worldwide rights to produce a documentary about Thomas Beatie, who was born a woman but after surgery and hormone treatments lives as a man and gave birth last month in Oregon.
September Films, a division of London-based DCD Media Plc, beat out four other production companies in acquiring exclusive rights to Beatie's story for the hour-long documentary, which it will produce for Britain's Channel 4, the company said.
