Romeos
Germany, 2011, 94 mins. Dir. Sabine Bernardi
When Lukas is assigned to the women’s dormitory for his compulsory civil service in Germany, this trans man learns that there’s much more to transition than physical changes. Full of the zest for life, he meets the macho Fabio, who seems to personify everything he wants to be. The attraction between them gradually develops, but how much will they risk for their feelings, when Lucas has to reveal his transgender identity? A journey through queer Cologne, with a protagonist who is at once brave and flawed. Romeos is a film about love, friendship, the complexities of transitioning, and how it can impact on others.
