Pop vom anderen Ufer
Pop vom anderen Ufer
Pop vom anderen Ufer
„I want to break free – Pop vom anderen Ufer“ erzählt, wie die Lesben- und Schwulenbewegung aus der Popkultur hervorging. Eine fröhliche Geschichte der LGBT-Community! Anlässlich der Ausstrahlung der Dokumentation „I want to break free – Pop vom anderen Ufer“ (auf ARTE im Jahr 2015) lässt uns Regisseur Maxime Donzel einen Blick in sein Drehtagebuch werfen.
Der Kampf um die Rechte Homosexueller war seit der Nachkriegszeit eng an die Entwicklung einer eigenen schwul-lesbischen Kultur gebunden. Homosexuelle tauschten in Film, Literatur und Musik ihre Erfahrungen mit Gleichgesinnten aus und kämpften mit den Mitteln der Kunst gegen ihre gesellschaftliche Ausgrenzung. Zunächst war die homosexuelle Szene eine verbotene Subkultur, später ab 1969 beeinflusste sie die Popkultur freier. Vor der sexuellen Revolution drohte stets die Zensur. Das Spiel mit den Zweideutigkeiten und dem Unausgesprochenen hat bleibende Spuren hinterlassen. Veröffentlicht am 27. 08. 2017

World première: 2010 June 25th, Ghent. Inspired by the penetrating film Yo soy así, in which the closing of a transvestite cabaret in Barcelona affords us a glimpse into the private lives of a memorable group of old artists, actress Vanessa Van Durme collected a number of transsexual and transvestite friends in order to win over directors Alain Platel and Frank Van Laecke and composer Steven Prengels for a project that can be called unique in every respect. / Veröffentlicht am 03.05.2010

Why am I so gay?
This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. In this powerful talk, Thomas Lloyd talks about taking pride in owning his identity and the strength that stems from that ownership. He talks with admiration about a movement that learnt that changing a community is much easier and much less damaging than changing one’s own identity. In his journey he has learnt to walk in solidarity with not only those he identifies with but also other marginalized groups in society. / Veröffentlicht am 19.11.2014

This Is What LGBT Life Is Like Around the World
As a gay couple in San Francisco, Jenni Chang and Lisa Dazols had a relatively easy time living the way they wanted. But outside the bubble of the Bay Area, what was life like for people still lacking basic rights? They set off on a world tour in search of „Supergays,“ LGBT people who were doing something extraordinary in the world. In 15 countries across Africa, Asia and South America — from India, recently home to the world’s first openly gay prince, to Argentina, the first country in Latin America to grant marriage equality — they found the inspiring stories and the courageous, resilient and proud Supergays they had been looking for. / Veröffentlicht am 04.12.2015

Coming out of your closet
Ash Beckham discusses the current state of homophobia in our culture challenging even the word „homophobia“ itself. There is no fear, just loathing. Hating things we don’t understand, people we don’t know or anything that is different than our day to day.
„Homophobic“ people are not scared of anything. We all have a responsibility to live our lives as active activists not passive ones when it comes to protecting our fellow humans from hate of any kind. / Veröffentlicht am 16.10.2013

Morgana Bailey: The danger of hiding who you are

Morgana Bailey has been hiding her true self for 16 years. In a brave talk, she utters four words that might not seem like a big deal to some, but to her have been paralyzing. Why speak up? Because she’s realized that her silence has personal, professional and societal consequences. In front of an audience of her co-workers, she reflects on what it means to fear the judgment of others, and how it makes us judge ourselves.
