CROSSING (M) Georgia 106mins
Advertisement
Lia, a retired teacher living in Georgia, made a promise to find her long lost niece Tekla. The search takes her to Istanbul, a beautiful city that seems full of connections and possibilities. There she meets Evrim, a lawyer fighting for trans rights, and Tekla starts to feel closer than ever
A beautifully studied portrait of what connects us as humans across the spectrum of cultural backgrounds.
A tender odyssey with Mzia Arabuli's wonderful performance as the audience's guide, Crossing marks another humanist triumph for writer-director Levan Akin.
Crossing is terrific: a rich and rewarding tapestry of characters and cultures flung together and flourishing.
Wendy Ide - Observer (UK)
A thoroughly intelligent, emotionally engaging and robustly performed movie from Levan Akin, the Georgian-Swedish director who had an international breakthrough four years ago with the love story And Then We Danced.
