Film archive: A future from memories

>> João Ferreira, Alejo Duclós

A conversation between João Ferreira, director of the Queer Lisbon and Queer Porto film festivals, and the artist and curator Alejo Duclós, responsible for the project Memorias Sinvergüenzas. A dialogue on the importance of working with the film archives when it comes to creating the present of the sex/gender dissidents’ community.

How can we work with the archives in festivals? What strategies can we use to confront the erasure of the queer community from official archives? How can we reconnect with the past in order to articulate the networks of resistance of today?

Create forge the power to copulate

>> Gabriela Wiener

At a time when white, heterocentric capitalism is phagocytising struggles and identities, it poses challenges for autonomous contemporary creation. The writer and one of the founders of Sudakasa, Gabriela Wiener, will talk about how rarely independent the independent tends to be today; and the need to generate community, diverse, anti-racist and combative spaces that articulate with each other towards the construction of a common agenda and social transformation.

Resistances and queer affection

>> Tatiana Romero, David Velduque, EHGAM, Emilio Papamija

Beyond the market and family exist the tiny and overlapping structures that sustain us in our work and life. How are we creating mutual spaces and queer neighbourhoods? In what ways can we gain collective agency to resist a social context that is increasingly adverse to dissidence? With Tatiana Romero, Emilio Papamija, David Velduque and EHGAM we insist on analysing, from different approaches to film and activism, the ways in which we can create conditions of collaborative, enjoyable, resilient and affectionate living.

Building feminist, queer and community housing alternatives

>> Colectivo La Morada

La Morada is a feminist and queer housing co-operative located in Barcelona. But how has it been possible to build this collective living project? La Morada reminds us that sharing everyday life in a common space is key to addressing interdependence and sustainability of life. How was it possible for them to balance individuality and communal living? Why did they choose the alternative formula of shared use? What does the collectivisation of tasks look like in practice?
