HOW THE ROOM FELT
Specials
Observing gently, filmmaker Ketevan Kapanadze gets close to a football club for women and queer individuals in the Georgian city of Kutaisi. Through the club and the resulting sense of community, the members create a safe space for themselves, though it is one also repeatedly buffeted by the slogans of LGBTQI+ antagonists on the streets. An important film about a group sticking together that sadly still has to bolster itself far too often against the world outside.
