As a matter of fact, now, we're living in a globalisation world, so, it's necessary talking in several languages and discover several cultures too and the movies help us in ths discovery!

No body is talking about the actual DAMAGE this guy has caused to a lot of LGBTQ+ people by literally EXPLOITING their work, stealing their stories for a couple of hundred dollars, and the number of trans woman who has been MANIPULATED and taken advantage of during the production of this movie, with the FALSE dream that he has been selling around. He and his Swedish prod company is working with a lot of small local co-production companies in Turkey and Georgia, which paid almost nothing to these actors while Mr. Akin was doing weekly trips to Sweden to see his cats, with the money that they had been gathering by using their FAKE ‘ACTIVISM’ Just a bunch of privileged gay guy exploiting the misery his own people, tragic. This guy and his producers should start by paying people correctly, rather than spending their founds to silence local poor actors and people they made work almost (and sometimes totally) FREE! It only takes a journalist to reach out to these actors; and ask a copy of their 'unacceptable' and force-full contract (with a clouse which forbids and punishes actors if they ever communicate their contract with a 3rd party?!!) + None of these underpaid actors will touch any benefits from ANY copy rights (INSANE). Just ASK THEIR CONTRACTS.
What are those people doing now while he is selling his movie to all those platforms and filling his Swedish pocket with dollars?!
EURIMAGES and all the other institutions should inspect where their founds are being spent and how the cast and the team is being treated.
If you wanna make a more interesting interview than this PR one, go ahead and inspect the real stories of those Turkish and Georgian actors who have been harmed and traumatized by this Swedish guy..
Trans community got more than enough of the exploitation of white-collar cis-gays... It only means LOW COST PRODUCTION for Mr. Akin and his producers; FRENCH QUARTER FILM, EASY RIDERS FILM & YENI BIR FILM
