1. Đovanijeva Soba
An American expatriate in Paris struggles with his sexual identity, torn between a clandestine, intense relationship with an Italian bartender and a planned marriage to a woman; his fear, shame, and inability to embrace his true self drive him to betray the man he loves, setting off a tragic unraveling that interrogates desire, responsibility, and the human cost of denial.
