In a Year with 13 Moons
Driven by the agony of unrequited love, slaughterhouse worker and married father-of-one Erwin Weishaupt summons up the courage to become Elvira. As a result, rejected by friends and family, desperate Elvira seeks solace in all the wrong places, exposing herself to vitriolic contempt and vicious ridicule. As pained Elvira meanders through the grim roads of Frankfurt with streetwalker Zora, struggling to survive in a faceless urban environment defined by brutality, loneliness, and despair, she retraces memories of her troubled past. Can she unearth something worth keeping? Written by Nick Riganas
