🍿 MIFF number 12 was Crossing (2024) ★★

A rectangular image with a review of the movie Crossing (2024). The movie poster is on the left and the review on the right side. Across the bottom is a rating of Poor Okay Good Great with Okay selected. The review reads: A fairly straightforward plot with a Georgian woman searching for her trans niece in Istanbul. As the film progresses Istanbul is shown as a city where you can disappear but also a city where you can be accepted for who you are, no matter your story. The film isn’t here to show Istanbul as a tourist destination, it moves through the back streets and narrow lanes as the search progresses. Three stories interwoven, the aunt, her unexpected companion, and the trans lawyer; each compassionate in their own way, each searching for something. Although a vibrant look at life and a very compassionate portrayal of the reality of life for the Istanbul trans community this just didn’t quite gel with me.
