Crossing film screening

Lia, a retired teacher, made a promise to find out what happened to her long lost niece Tekla. When Lia learns from Achi, a neighbour, that Tekla might be living in Turkey, they set off together to find her. In Istanbul they discover a beautiful city full of connections and possibilities – but looking for someone who never intended to be found is harder than they thought. Until they meet Evrim, a lawyer fighting for trans rights. As Lia and Achi weave their way through the city’s backstreets, Tekla starts to feel closer than ever.

The film is followed by a discussion donned by legendary Movie Barf film columnist Ryan Keating, dedicated to screening a diverse variety of award-winning films both contemporary and classic.

The film is screened in the original version with Czech and English subtitles.
