Mutt

Mutt (2023), the debut feature from Chilean-Serbian director Vuk Lungulov-Klotz, follows a day in the life of Feña, a recently transitioned young trans man living in New York City. Trans actor Lío Mehiel shines as the dynamic lead beset by hectic disruptions and unexpected encounters from his past as he navigates both the challenges of daily life and new relationships dynamics with family, friends, and a former lover. Laundromats, subway turnstiles, and airport transfers are the background to this emotional drama that overlaps past, present, and future.

“An exciting evolution for contemporary trans cinema.” (IndieWire)
