Documentary movie: Samanthas's Cocktail Party

Tuesday, November 30, 21h00

CCVF /Small auditorium

In partnership with Cineclube de Guimarães

Samanta, a young adult and trans woman, moves from her parents' house to an apartment in the center of Lisbon, which she shares with her best friend Rodrigo. In a completely new scenario and adapting to his new life, he spends his days between insomnia caused by the small anxiety of finally starting his adult life and the utopian dream of finding someone with whom he can share it. But this new stage brings unexpected challenges: Samanta will have to confront her identity, the passage of time and the possibility that she will never be fully realized.

Final presentation

TN21, from its new show “Orlando” and living up to its work history and record that contributes to inclusion, decided to involve the students of the University of Minho in this project, confronting them with the diversity and complexity of the themes involved, such as the issue of gender (focusing on transsexuality and transgender) and disability (physical or mental). Through first-person testimonies, it is intended to offer students the psychological, civic, legal, emotional, artistic and health perspectives of the topics covered, in order to leave bases for a critical reflection and problematization of the themes, which will give rise to a final object and presentation (Podcasts and Ted Talk Formats).
