TRANSFINITE is a sci-fi omnibus feature film composed of seven standalone magical realistic short stories where supernatural trans and queer people from various cultures use their powers to protect, love, teach, fight and thrive. This is the feature-length debut for acclaimed independent filmmaker Neelu Bhuman, and stands as a testament to blending all of Bhuman’s bold and beautiful filmmaking techniques that have helped garner attention and awards for their experimental short films. All the standalone stories featured were written by seven trans and queer writers with myriad backgrounds, and through Bhuman’s seemingly infinite array of incorporated aesthetics ranging from sublime animation, to subtle VFX, to a lush score, “TRANSFINITE” weaves these stories of power with such facile grace that looks anything but effortless.
