SUN IN SATURN
This film dives deep within its characters to bring to the surface the undeniable change a trans person goes through - one that also changes everyone around.
Amid themes of death and loss, I explore how a process of gender transition touches upon these concepts, bridging it with different ways of transition.
Sun in Saturn provokes deep and stimulating reflections on parenthood, grief and love.
