A BUMP IN THE HEART
Belgium 2022 – Director: Noé Reutenauer – Original language: French – Subtitles: English – Length: 62 min.
How do you find a girlfriend – someone to love, a princess that you can pamper and adore? Kirill is in his mid thirties and is seeking independence and above all, true love. But it’s not so simple for this young man with Down syndrome who would prefer not to admit that he hasn’t had much experience yet in affairs of the heart. A respectful portrait that gets very close to its subject without exposing too much. Anna Magdalena Hofer
