I DO NOT BELONG IN THIS BODY: Devran, a 23-year-old transman, has left his home in western Azerbaijan to seek hormonal therapy for gender adaptation surgery. But in Azerbaijan, few doctors or health clinics are willing to treat transgender people.

QUIET MOMENTS: Anne has been living on Cora’s family farm for over a year and the two have become incredibly close.

Anne tries to be supportive and find ways to help Cora but her efforts are futile against Cora’s stubbornness.

NEXT OF KIN: After a night out in Berlin, a young, gay, British guy becomes the victim of a system which denies his existence and throws him into oblivion following the sudden death of his partner.
