"Small Talk": An Incluvie Film Festival Review

Set in tsarist Russia around the turn of the century and based on a true story of a Russian Jewish peasant Yakov Bog who was wrongly imprisoned for a most unlikely crime - the “ritual murder” of a Gentile child in Kyiv.

Films staring black transgender actresses/actors are few and far between, it’s refreshing to see a demographic represented in film that hardly gets any attention.

That is why it’s so crucial that we amplify their voices through any way we can, storytelling being a great medium to do so.
