Through a Queer Lens
In collaboration with MIX Copenhagen – LGBTQ+ Film Festival, we open the conversation Through a Queer Lens with artists Maria Nadia Nour, Frida Retz, and documentary director Kir Siegumfeldt, exploring representation, intersectionality, and the right to define one’s own story on screen.
Join us for a special screening of Bouchra, followed by a conversation with Maria Nadia Nour (she/her), Danish/Moroccan multidisciplinary artist, Frida Retz (she/her), multidisciplinary artist, and Kir Siegumfeldt (he/him), documentary director, reflecting on what it means to create art and storytelling through a queer lens. The discussion is moderated by MIX Copenhagen – LGBTQ+ Film Festival.
Drawing on the lived experiences of queer filmmakers, the conversation delves into how queer representation is shaped at the intersection of identity, body, culture, and power. How to portray complex queer lives and how to open up new intersectional perspectives on screen?
The panel brings together queer voices from the film world for an open and reflective discussion on visibility, responsibility, and artistic freedom — and on why it still matters who tells the stories, and from which perspective they are told.
And remember: Right after the screening we invite you to BRUS party: Intersection at BRUS right next door. Free entry!
This conversation will be in English
