from the 16 to 21 the Mars 2007
Cinema the Warehouse, Paris
Edito
Heir to feminism,
and the cultures gay, lesbians and
trans, the theory and the
political movement Queer déconstruisent the kinds and
sexualities. Like Jean Genet which,
while inviting to transform the shame of bet in pride, called with a
reformulation, by dominated themselves, individually and collectively,
from their subjectivity, the Queer cinema, reflection of new forms of
relations, to be in the world, from artistic proposals, came today to
upset the modes of production and the same forms of an art of the
cinema.
We will leave this year an important place with the
feminist cinema and will try to trace of them the points of
convergences with the thought queer.
Several go are impossible to circumvent during the festival, of
which in particular:
The opening of the festival around the?uvre of the artist
performer Leigh Bowery, figure
worship of the Eighties and the fury of the culture underground.
The vertiginous course of a creator of incredible costumes which
redrew new bodies defying all the standards.
The whole day devoted to the meeting between "Queer movement and post-colonialism",
with in particular "Black Nations/Queer Nations" of Shari Frilot,
projected for the first time for 12 years in France, and "Mama No me
lo dijo" of Mujeres Creando, has celebrated it Bolivian radical
feminist group, which starting from performances and of poems
insolents, réapproprie public space for better
transforming it.
Incredible "the Dust Dandy" of
Hans Scheirl, film-worship with crossed
experimental cinema and science fiction, which, by a proliferation of
Clerc's Offices, fluids, mutant beings at the mental and body borders
completion burst, returns account of what could be imaginary a queer
in its the most unslung form, holding at the same time of the cyborg
and the post-identity.
Many surprises to come to discover on the spot, vidéos of Oreet Ashery, of the photographer Del LaGrace Volcano, GAT, Pink Panthers of
Montreal or performer South-African Steven Cohen, a new film of Judith Cahen, astonishing interview of Catherine Millet around the
performer Alberto Sorbelli, the
very beautiful Mozart District of the Cameronian realizer Jean-Pierre Bekolo, a documentary new
around the philosopher queer Beatriz Preciado, opera-porn-social of Jean-Louis
Costes, of films of scenario writers pionnières
such as Ulrike Ottinger, Maria Klonaris & Katerina Thomadaki, the Nile Yalter or Barbara Hammer, a large feminist film
collectivist of Yann Masson or
traditional and unavoidable Come Boyz de Gabriel
