A bicycle accident causes a crack in the protective shell Alice has grown to be able to bear the oppressive confinement of her daily life. Can she finally dance her way out?
Alice is 27 years old today. Even though she is suffocating a bit, she still lives with her parents and tends to dwell on her dreams to escape her dreary everyday life. After a psychedelic party on a factory roof, she has a serious drunken bike accident. Will this give her the courage to become an adult?
Fanni, a rejected trans, seeks refuge in Laci’s hut. The solitary homeless man becomes a father figure to her and together, they confront her inner demons and the harsh rejection by society.
On the outskirts of Budapest, in the heart of the woods, hides a ramshackle little hut. Inside, two social outcasts have formed the unlikeliest of bonds. Fanni, a 19-year-old transgender teenager, and Laci, a 60-year-old homeless man support each other in a makeshift family as father and daughter through hardship and change. Set on the margins of Hungarian society, life is tough but it is theirs. Let your conventions be challenged in this coming-of-age documentary about home, family and acceptance.
The breasts are in place, the feathers are smoothed, off to the date! Her daughter does not comprehend the ritual of desire yet … Erotically crude, with pointed beaks in the conflicts.
Tomorrow, Tomorrow, Tomorrow is a deeply personal film about what it means to look at and document, and the unforeseen consequences of a well-meant, but unprepared intervention.
Tomorrow, Tomorrow, Tomorrow starts where most films about homeless kids end – the day after they are taken in. We assume it's a happy ending but what really happens next? This film tackles the emotional and ethical challenges that arise when a determined, idealistic and thoroughly unprepared American cinematographer decides to support three Mongolian orphans. Told over the span of six years, Tomorrow, Tomorrow, Tomorrow is a deeply personal film and an honest portrait of how storytellers and their characters impact each other. The filmmaker and central character, Martina, grapples with what it means to intervene in a meaningful way. Ultimately, she has to ask herself who is helping whom.
The film addresses the messiness of love and belonging and the universal experience of parent-child relationships – while at the same time, Martina questions the power imbalance and accountability that arise when we look at and document.
A tale about the loves and dreams of Reema, a transgender woman in Pakistan.
The film starts in the cinema – the only place where a man can see women on screen. But in sharp contrast to Lollywood is the world in which Reema can subsist as a transgender woman in Pakistan – the Well of Death. A carnival sideshow, where motorcyclists perform stunts and Reema dances to attract consumers. It's the life of a nomad, each town and each show revealing the beauties and complexities of Pakistani society. Reema is convinced to have found the love of her life, Asif. They work together and support each other. It's a utopia that is shattered when Reema suddenly loses Asif. Heartbroken, Reema travels back to her “Guru”, who runs the transgender safe house where she grew up...
