Transparent (Seasons 1–5)

Transparent (2014) is Amazon's tragicomic drama series, and you can watch it online on iFILM. Maura Pfefferman, a retired Los Angeles parent of three grown kids, finally tells the family a truth carried for a lifetime: she is a transgender woman.

Maura's coming out (Jeffrey Tambor) sets off a chain reaction. Each adult child is its own mess — Sarah torches a comfortable marriage, Josh chases a love that keeps slipping away, Ali drifts in search of who she is. It's a family where nobody respects a boundary and everyone guards a secret. Creator Joey Soloway turns gender, Jewish identity and inheritance into something funny one minute and raw the next, often in the same scene.

It became the first streaming series to win a Golden Globe for best series, and Tambor took an Emmy for playing Maura. Talky, intimate, character-first television for anyone who likes complicated families with no clean villains. Stream every season of Transparent online on iFILM.
