He comes to the \u2018Reality\u2019 project casting, and its authors suggest him to film his everyday life himself, which Aleksey agrees to enthusiastically. He becomes the protagonist of his own movie. He is in search of a boyfriend, and life would also be much better if his mother could accept his sexuality. Aleksey comes to visit her and admits that he likes boys, saying \u2018Don\u2019t you anticipate any grandchildren from me\u2019. All this ends with a drunken scandal, Aleksey leaves the house with an intention never to come back and slams the door.

With the camera being right up against people\u2019s bodies and faces during impassioned discussions or testimonials, and the uncertainty of Aleksey or Dmitry holding the camera, Butterflies takes an unusual observational approach.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"wpb_text_column us_custom_af6a9b6a\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><h2><b>Comets<br \/>\n<\/b><\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"w-image align_none\"><div class=\"w-image-h\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/xposedfilmfestival.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/comets_stills_1.1.14_web.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/xposedfilmfestival.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/comets_stills_1.1.14_web.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/xposedfilmfestival.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/comets_stills_1.1.14_web-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/xposedfilmfestival.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/comets_stills_1.1.14_web-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/xposedfilmfestival.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/comets_stills_1.1.14_web-299x168.jpg 299w, https:\/\/xposedfilmfestival.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/comets_stills_1.1.14_web-600x338.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/div><\/div><div class=\"wpb_text_column\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><p>Wednesday, January 12th, 8:45pm at <a href=\"https:\/\/kino-krokodil.de\/\">Kino Krokodil<\/a><\/p>\n<p><b>COMETS, <\/b>Tamar Shavgulidze, Georgia 2019, 71 min<\/p>\n<p>After three decades, Irina and Nana meet in the garden of their past.

She sneaks out of the house strolling around the empty streets, seeking genuine experiences instead of mere substitutes.
