Becoming Male in the Middle Ages (2022)
26 Jan 2022 • Short, Drama • 0h 22m
Mirene and André are a heterosexual couple struggling with infertility issues. Carl and Vicente are a homosexual couple undergoing an experimental procedure in order to have a biological child. The film's classic cinematography contrasts with a science-fictionalised narrative, to deliver an utterly refreshing exploration of gender, reproduction, normativity, and the notion of family. A work that's food for thought - like the lab-grown meat in its opening scene.
