en_ is a moving portrait of quiet defiance, radical care, and the fight for bodily autonomy in modern Italy.
Presented in partnership with @sheffdocfest , this acclaimed documentary follows Dr. Maurizio Bini, a Milan-based physician offering fertility and gender-affirming care in one of Italy’s only public hospitals — in direct opposition to a rising tide of conservative backlash.
🎬 With rare access and tender insight, director Gianluca Matarrese captures emotional consultations, political resistance, and everyday acts of care that are anything but ordinary.
This is intimate, urgent, essential queer documentary filmmaking.
