Short Film Project MADONNA NON GRATA

dir. Elžbieta Latėnaitė (Lithuania)
Tuesday-Wednesday, 4-5 Feb.
at Euro Connection Co-production Forum 2025

Aiste, a bright transgender woman from Vilnius, Lithuania, decides to leave the Catholic Church. To do so, she must return to her little hometown and meet the local priest. Once a firm believer, Aiste now struggles with the Church’s position towards people like her. She confronts the priest she knew in childhood. Since Aiste now identifies as a woman and the priest has partially lost his vision, their encounter becomes complicated on multiple levels.
