- Synopsis:
Shameless and tender, exciting and witty, dark and erratic, 'At Night All Cats Are Black' pays homage to the tradition of underground and queer cinema, the poetics of Apichatpong Weerasethakul's fantasy and the humorous deconstructions of detective films carried out by directors such as Bruno Dumont. Valentin Merz's dehut feature, Special Mention for Best First Film at the Locarno Film Festival, is driven hy the right to lose oneself and to feel lost in life, in filmmaking and in sex. We start in the shooting of a debauched film in the Swiss forests and after the mgsterious disappearance of the director, we end up in the Mexican jungle, where the "muxes", an expression of trans identity typical of the Zapotec culture, live. - Actors:
