Crossing (15)

15
Dir: Levan Akin 2024 | 106 mins

Georgian and Turkish with English subtitles

A retired Georgian teacher sets out to reunite with her estranged trans niece in Levah Akin’s Crossing.

The bright, warm and novelistic new drama from Akin (And Then We Danced), Crossing won the Teddy Award Jury Prize for LGBTQ-themed films at this year’s Berlin Film Festival.

Retired teacher Lia (Mzia Arabuli) promised her dying sister that she would seek out her long-lost daughter Tekla. Together with cocky young Achi (Lucas Kankava), who offers to be her guide, she sets off for Turkey to find Tekla in Istanbul’s trans community. But locating someone who doesn’t want to be found is hard. Can Evrim (Deniz Dumanlı), a street-smart lawyer fighting for trans rights, help them?

'A trio of excellent performances drives this intelligent film from Levan Akin, in which a Georgian woman and her young sidekick head to the big city' ★★★★ The Guardian
