Hannah and Her Brothers

Hana a jej bratia
Slovakia, 2000. 77 mins. Water Bearer

In spite of being surrounded by a large family and many friends, eighteen year old Martin feels completely forlorn. In the tangle of crazy relationships he is looking for someone on his own wavelength, someone who, like himself, is different. Martin’s only refuge is the apartment of his eccentric neighbor, Theodora, an amateur photographer who helps Martin sift through the responses to his personal ads. Slowly Martin is drawn to Hanna and Her Brothers a local cabaret where Hanna is a man with a secret, the same one that Martin shares.
