Director: Amina Maher
Cast: -
Story: In Abbas Kiarostami’s film Ten, Amina Maher is a rage-fuelled 10-year-old boy who spends most of his screen time engaged in a vicious shouting match against his mother. Kiarostami probably never expected what was to come Amina would soon be subjected to years of sexual abuse by his paedophile uncle. Now a filmmaker based in Berlin, Maher intercuts snippets from Ten and an imaginary conversation with her mother while also shaving her body hair – thus ridding herself a masculinity she loathes.
Movie Name: Kelet
Language: Finnish, English, Somali(English Subtitles)
Category: IIB
Duration: 58 Mins
Director: Susani Mahadura
Cast: -
Story: It’s tough being black in Finland – and imagine being transsexual as well! Not that it matters for the Helsinki-born and Manchester-raised Kelet, who defies the odds against her – being Somali and trans in a white, straight world – and digs in to achieve her dreams of becoming a Vogue-gracing model. Kelet is a life-affirming documentary about someone who returns to her birthplace with dreams of becoming a star on catwalks and magazine covers, radiating confidence as she struts her stuff in shows and proms.
