The Act of Cutting Away (2026)

Directed by Hayden Celentano

· 11m

Insurmountable medical bureaucracy pushes Roland, a transmasculine college student, to the absolute brink. Desperate for top surgery but blocked by systemic gatekeeping, his reality fractures when he discovers a classmate running a clandestine, illegal dissection operation. What started as a struggle against healthcare politics instantly devolves into a grim, body-horror bargain for survival.
