Synopsis

Our take

Ali Kemal Çınar’s deadpan comedy hits its pinnacle in this enigmatic tale of fluid identities and gender non-conformity. Calling Kevin Smith’s Clerks to mind with its simple setting and monochrome aesthetic, Hidden goes further by inviting the viewer to actively reconstruct its queer narrative.
