How the Room Felt is the story of a team of queer, non-binary and lesbian footballers in Kutaisi, Georgia. The documentary focuses on the unifying power of football and the creation of a safe space among queers, in an atmosphere where pride marches are cancelled and LGBTI+ people are not welcomed by society. The film also witnesses a lot of kiki, partying and romantic relationships during the team’s meetings. The documentary tells the story of how a group whose daily reality consists of discrimination, exclusion and violence shows solidarity when they come together, protects and loves each other.
