To celebrate Pride month, we are bringing you a special preview screening of Levan Akin’s Crossing on 27 June, presented in partnership with Outburst Queer Arts Festival.Audiences in select cinemas throughout Ireland can enjoy an exclusive first look of the award-winning feature ahead of its cinema release on 19 July.
Crossing is a moving, compassionate tale of identity, acceptance and unlikely connection that transcends borders and generations.
Lia, a retired school teacher living in Georgia, hears from a young neighbour Achi that her long lost niece Tekla, a transgender woman, has crossed the border into Turkey. Hoping to bring Tekla home after a period of estrangement, Lia travels to Istanbul with the unpredictable Achi to find her. Exploring the hidden depths of the city, they cross paths with a transgender lawyer called Evrim, who helps them in their search.
Humanistic and tender, Akin’s third feature is a heartfelt portrayal of overcoming the degrees of separation that divide us.
