Waiting for Axel

Synopsis:

The film follows a young, transgender female to male person from Croatia, who should have started a process of hormone therapy. Instead of getting what her therapist and doctors had promised him, he
struggles with an ignorant and unprofessional medical system, which keeps postponing the start of his medical treatment. The film is a story of waiting for a personal change, which means the world to someone, and nothing to people standing in his way.
