Wednesday's PÖFF celebrates the art of being a man
Wednesday at PÖFF is dedicated to men. Men who must be heroes in all their fragility, endure feelings that would be much easier to swallow, and find solutions that are nowhere in sight. Today's films reveal what it means to be a real man in a world that expects so much and understands so little. This is a day for men to feel in movie theaters that they are not alone in their confusion.
