Three Kilometers to the End of the World (Trei kilometri pâna la capatul lumii)
Date & Time
Event Description
Set in a conservative Danube Delta community, a gay teenager's journey of self-discovery clashes with the traditional values upheld by his parents and neighbors.
Adi (17) is spending the summer in his home village in the Danube Delta. One night, he is brutally attacked on the street, turning his world upside-down. His parents' attitudes change, and the village's seeming tranquility cracks. With gut-wrenching performances, the film highlights a community's struggle with prejudice and justice and the coverup and corruption in the legal system that persecutes those it is meant to protect. Three Kilometers to the End of the World is a tough, sinewy drama about a community wanting to ignore differences and its own culpability. Winner of the Queer Palm for the Best GLBT film at Cannes
