SUMMARY:Crossing
DESCRIPTION:Listen to this Event Page\n  \nGlasgow Film Theatre\, Mubi and SQIFF are collaborating on a beautiful screening of Crossing by Levan Akin on Monday 22nd July at 8:10pm at the Glasgow Film Theatre! \nFrom acclaimed director Levan Akin (And Then We Danced)\, Crossing is a moving and tender tale of identity\, acceptance and unlikely connection that transcends borders and generations. \nLia\, a retired school teacher living in Georgia\, hears from a young neighbour Achi that her long lost niece Tekla\, a transgender woman\, has crossed the border into Türkiye. Hoping to bring Tekla home after a period of estrangement\, Lia travels to Istanbul with the unpredictable Achi to find her. Exploring the hidden depths of the city\, they cross paths with a transgender lawyer called Evrim\, who helps them in their search. As a reluctant and surprising friendship forms between Achi and Lia\, the unexpected duo begin to discover that Tekla may not want to be found. \nWith remarkably authentic performances from Mzia Arabuli and newcomers Lucas Kankava and Deniz Dumanli\, Akin’s third film offers a vibrant and evocative portrait of the city of Istanbul. Humanistic and compassionate\, this hopeful vision of forgiveness is a heartfelt portrayal of overcoming the degrees of separation that divide us. \nThis screening of Crossing will be introduced by SQIFF’s Director\, Indigo Korres. You don’t want to miss it! \nTickets are available through the Glasgow Film Theatre website\, click here. \n  \nACCESSIBLITY  \nThis screening has an age recommendation of 15+. \n106 minutes long with a 15 minutes captioned introduction. \nEnglish\, Georgian\, and Turkish audio with English language descriptive subtitles. \nIf you have any questions about accessibility at for this event\, please get in touch with us at info@sqiff.org. \nWe ask that you wear a mask if possible and please don’t attend the screening if you have any symptoms of Covid-19 or have been in recent contact with a confirmed case.  \nImage: Crossing (2024\, Dir.
