Gender and self-discovery are the themes running through this programme of challenging and imaginative films from China, Brazil and the USA. A woman’s hospital reunion with her estranged daughter plays out not in a hospital but on the busy streets of a city; a Chinese textile worker discovers their true self on the dance floor; and a queer teenager encounters a mysterious and miraculous living cave.
