With our resolutions we sway through the city as if we are young and beautiful, from party to party, we feel golden, wake up in <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt0997263\/\" target=\"_blank\">unmade beds<\/a>, dive into the masses, ask ourselves how long we can go on like this or at what point we should actually stop.

For the new year. &#8211; But until then, we should just enjoy life.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/25.media.tumblr.com\/tumblr_ma8r358qve1qg39ewo1_500.gif\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">And everyone who has not heard of it yet, the TEDDY\u2019s resolution for the next weeks is more partys!

A man describes how he was physically abused by his father because of his sexual identity. Gay men from across the social classes and regions of the country have their say and discuss the different conditions which determined gay life in Italy. There is a discomfiting and controversial discrepancy between the reality of the individual accounts and the media coverage. The latter often portrays gay people with a discriminatory irony or is manipulating, especially where intellectuals are concerned. With FELICE CHI \u00c8 DIVERSO, Gianni Amelio relates a gay history of Italy since fascist times. His analysis of social conditions is both moving and enraging and refuses to allow the audience to remain indifferent.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><strong>Cinestar 7, 5.00pm<\/strong><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/news.teddyaward.tv\/en\/video\/?a-z=1&amp;select=T&amp;id_film=564\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>TITS<\/strong><\/span><\/a><br \/>\n<em>(Tits)<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em><a class=\"lightbox\" title=\"TITS\" href=\"http:\/\/blog.teddyaward.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/Tits_1-e1391437279565.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-557\" title=\"TITS\" alt=\"Tits_1\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.teddyaward.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/Tits_1-1024x581.jpg\" width=\"474\" height=\"268\" \/><\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Sam, 13, hopes to conceal his breasts with a tightly worn leather belt.

It marks the transition from youth to manhood. A boy who has just undergone circumcision sits in semi-darkness in a simple hut on a hill, far away from the village, as prescribed by the initiation ritual. He is covered from head to toe with a paint made from clay which makes him look as white as a goat. This should be a period of healing, but he is cold and in pain. His grandfather, who is supposed to induct him into his new life, has not yet appeared. According to the belief system of the Xhosa, Ukwaluka also purges the boy from homosexual desires, for which there is no place in the world of adults.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a class=\"lightbox\" title=\"IBHIKHWE\" href=\"http:\/\/blog.teddyaward.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/iBhokhwe_1-e1391437686171.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-535\" title=\"IBHIKHWE\" alt=\"iBhokhwe_1\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.teddyaward.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/iBhokhwe_1-150x150.jpg\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0 <a class=\"lightbox\" title=\"IBHIKHWE\" href=\"http:\/\/blog.teddyaward.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/iBhokhwe_2-e1391437675436.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-536 alignnone\" alt=\"iBhokhwe_2\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.teddyaward.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/iBhokhwe_2-150x150.jpg\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><strong>Cinemaxx 1, 6.00pm<\/strong><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/news.teddyaward.tv\/en\/video\/?a-z=1&amp;select=M&amp;id_film=561\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>MONDIAL 2010<\/strong><\/span><\/a><br \/>\n<em>(Mondial 2010)<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em><a class=\"lightbox\" title=\"MONDIAL 2010\" href=\"http:\/\/blog.teddyaward.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/Mondial_2010-e1391437640828.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-539\" title=\"MONDIAL 2010\" alt=\"Mondial_2010\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.teddyaward.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/Mondial_2010-1024x575.jpg\" width=\"474\" height=\"266\" \/><\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A Lebanese gay couple decides to take a road trip to Ramallah.

Memories are invoked by pictures enclosed inside Gabriel&#8217;s, the brother&#8217;s, amulet. The mother is dead \u2013 how will they fill the void she left behind? Each individual family member tries to find their way, is obliged to redefine their course. Calm are the images and gestures that lead us through this film. Of the utmost importance however, is the question of how to proceed with the mother inside one&#8217;s heart.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a title=\"AS ROSAS BRANCAS\" href=\"http:\/\/blog.teddyaward.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/as_rosas_brancas_1-e1391438029400.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"AS ROSAS BRANCAS\" alt=\"as_rosas_brancas_1\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.teddyaward.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/as_rosas_brancas_1-150x150.jpg\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/> <\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.teddyaward.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/as_rosas_brancas_7.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-513 alignnone\" title=\"DIOGO COSTA AMARANTE\" alt=\"as_rosas_brancas_7\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.teddyaward.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/as_rosas_brancas_7-150x150.jpg\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><strong>Cinemaxx 3, 10.00pm<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/news.teddyaward.tv\/en\/video\/?a-z=1&amp;select=C&amp;id_film=559\" target=\"_blank\">CASTANHA<\/a><br \/>\n<\/strong><em>(Castanha)<strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Yko8urDaoBk\" height=\"315\" width=\"560\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">52-year-old actor and transvestite Jo\u00e3o has his best years behind him. He\u2019s ill, has lost both lovers and companions along the way and appears weary, even if none of this stops him from living the way he always has. Jo\u00e3o shares two rooms with his mother in a housing complex closed off to the outside; at night he performs in small theatres and gay bars.<br \/>\nThe film makes just as much time for solitary moments in shabby backstage areas as it does for Jo\u00e3o\u2019s performances and his unforgettable face, exploring a milieu at once tender, brutal and cruel with precision, its fleeting glamour only skin-deep. Its complex layers of documentary observation and fictional elements coalesce into a story of life and death.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a class=\"lightbox\" title=\"CASTANHA\" href=\"http:\/\/blog.teddyaward.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/Castanha_3-e1391437978526.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-517\" title=\"CASTANHA\" alt=\"Castanha_3\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.teddyaward.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/Castanha_3-150x150.jpg\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.teddyaward.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/Castanha_2-e1391437176515.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-562\" alt=\"Castanha_2\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.teddyaward.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/Castanha_2-150x150.jpg\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.teddyaward.tv\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2014\/02\/Castanha_72dpi.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-407\" alt=\"Castanha_\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.teddyaward.tv\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2014\/02\/Castanha_72dpi-150x150.jpg\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><strong>Kino Arsenal 1, 10.30 pm<\/strong><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New Year Resolutions are the salt in the soup.
