TAXI MOTO

Berlinale Shorts 2026
© ADOK FILMS
A director has to reimagine his film – a love story between two men – because he was not allowed to shoot it in his home country. In a different location, he finds a new lead actor and, together with him, a new approach. As reality merges with fiction, the project becomes an intimate exploration of what cannot be shown, as well as a gesture of resistance, where cinema, desire and freedom become one.
