2023 Best New Screenwriter, Bavarian Film Awards
On first glance, Leyla and Tristan seem like a happy young couple. But when they travel to a mysterious, remote island, a game of identities begins, which changes everything – their perception, their sexuality, their whole “self”. Not only is their relationship in jeopardy, they may never be who they once were again…The film explores the relationship between body, mind, and soul, and the essence of love, with a lot of humor and poetry. Alex Schaad, who made his directorial debut with this film, won the Queer Lion Award at the Venice Film Festival.
