LA BOCCA DEL LUPO

The Wolf's Mouth

Italy
2009
67 minutes

The love story of a petty criminal and the transsexual he met in jail is juxtaposed to images of Genova in the 19th century and nowadays. Beautifully shot and edited documentary that is more of a poetic essay than a standard genre entry; mesmerizing to look at, but rather bewildering.
