To celebrate PRIDE month, and in conjunction with Mubi Uk & Ireland and Gaze Film fest, we are bringing you a special preview screening of Levan Akin’s CROSSING on June 23rd. Audiences in select cinemas throughout Ireland can enjoy an exclusive first look of the award-winning CROSSING ahead of its cinema release on July 19th.Synopsis: From acclaimed director Levan Akin (And Then We Danced), CROSSING is a moving and tender 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 compassionate, Akin’s third feature is a heartfelt portrayal of overcoming the degrees of separation that divide us.
