All Those Sensations in My Belly

EXHIBITION, PROJECTIONS AND TALKS WITH AUTHORS AND PROTAGONIST

Hana, Marko i Matia

As its starting point, the exhibition relies on animated film 'All those sensations in my belly', which is co-authored by illustrator Hana Tintor, screenwriter and film director Marko Dješka and film protagonist Matia Anna Pleše.

Program

Based on the real life of transgender girl Matia, the animated documentary presents and recounts her experience of transition to another gender and the complexity of finding true love with a heterosexual man.

From multiple perspectives, the program explains the theme of the film, as well as the process of appearances - the process of personal discovery, self-identification, the intimate experience of growing up and going out in public of a transgender person, in a society with traditional views on gender identity or any kind of diversity.

Through its stratified form, the program simultaneously portrays the poetic world of illustrator Hana Tintor, and introspection of the intimate process of a real transgender girl. It reveals a creative approach and the process of creating a specific form of documentary animation.

Curators: Marta Kiš, Iva Gašparović and Tanja Masnec Šoškić
