The radical Polish director Małga Kubiak is regularly represented with her films at the Pornfilmfestival Berlin. In 2016 we showed “Andy Warhol to se vrati: boyz” and in 2019 followed “Federico Garcia Lorca Noir Despair”. Last year she was in the festival program with “Xreens”. In her latest film “D’Vinci”, the filmmaker again reflects on a famous artist. As expected, it did not turn out to be a typical biopic, and Kubiak dives deep into the meaning that her films and her way of working have and had for herself and for others – as always in her incomparable no-budget style. In today’s conservative Poland, her way of making films is no easy feat.

In Slit Your Click the trans woman’s role of marginal villain—clad in a shiny trench coat, blonde wig, nylon stockings, and fierce make-up—is evaded. She instead walks away possessing the film’s focus, becoming its sympathetic heroine.
