Winner of the Sundance 2023 Special Jury Award for Acting, Mutt touches down on a mere 24-hour span in the life of one man, Feña (Lío Mehiel), as he course-corrects post-transition through a desultory landscape of misunderstandings, broken hearts, and terse conversation. Realistically touching and as tender and gangly as a newborn calf, it follows Feña as he continues his journey towards fulfillment as a trans man in a relatable and moving way, attempting to mend as best as possible his relationships with family and an ex-lover while also having his very being picked apart by the legal semantics and uncomfortable personal interrogation that arise from it. Occasionally humorous, mostly understated, and perfectly imperfect, Vuk Lungulov-Klotz choosing to use the sweaty abandon of a hot summer's day in New York City adds a welcome texture of grit to his debut feature.
