Closing Film: Mutt

Mutt tells the story of a young trans man named Feña reacquainting with family and friends he has not seen since before his transition.

Feña (Lío Mehiel) experiences contrasting moments of hostility and heartfelt care upon reintroduction to his father, younger sister and ex-boyfriend. The father shows signs of intimidation by his child's new masculinity, the ex-boyfriend questions his own sexuality and the younger sister naively asks questions that hit a nerve.

Mutt is the final film of our 2023 festival and will be followed by a short closing ceremony. Join us to celebrate another year of the Scottish Queer International Film Festival.

Curated by Nat Lall.
