Open
Probably the most extreme film of this year’s competition, already awarded at Berlinale 2010, Open is a queer film for the 21st century. It is built upon authentic characters transferred into a fictional story. It shows sensitively, yet with total frankness, the lives of transgender people. The documentary quality of the film is highlighted by its breath-taking visualization. The visual refinement stresses the power of this road-movie about relationships and finding one’s identity, where people themselves become works of art. Director Jake Yuzna will present the film to the Prague audience.
