A film by Adrián Silvestre
(Spain, 2021, 98 min.)

1 show for this event

After moving to Barcelona from France, Raphi begins a journey of transition as a woman and tries to rebuild her identity. She, who is romantic and dreamy, would like a life that lives up to her desires, but her job in a dreary, annihilating call center and her often awkward dates make her feel inadequate. Through a glimpse into her daily life, we follow her in a period that is full of confusion and changes. After the documentary Sediments, director Adrián Silvestre returns to fiction with the delicate and emotional story of a girl in search of her identity and her place in the world.

The leading actress and co-screenwriter Raphaëlle Pérez will be present at the screening to introduce the film and for a Q&A with the audience.

In case of bad weather, the event will be hosted at the DAMSLab Auditorium in Piazzetta Pier Paolo Pasolini 5/b. Follow the updates on Gender Bender’s social networks.
