Cara Mamma
(Documentary), Regie: Sky Neal, 24:22
After Naissa reveals herself to her mother Daniela as a trans man and mentions the upcoming operation, she struggles for understanding. In an open, personal exchange of letters over the course of three years, in dreamlike, allegorical sequences and in the style of cinema verité, “Cara Mamma” follows how Naissa resolutely stands up for independence and identity and how Daniela struggles with her fear of losing her daughter
Sister Wives
(Drama), Director: Louisa Connolly-Burnham, 28:57
Captivating love story of two young Mormon women in a strict, fundamentalist, polygamous society: Kaidence and Galilee find themselves bound to each other, under the same roof, in the same marriage, while developing frightening, new, exciting feelings for each other.
