[ENG] We are dedicating 'Voices of Resistance' to Palestine and the Palestinians, who have been living under occupation for 76 years. By exploring the intersectionality of being a queer Arab, this short film programme reminds us that queerness is only at odds with systems of oppression. It takes us on a multifaceted and poetic journey, showcasing figures of resistance to the Israeli occupation, Palestinian drag queens, and intimate family relationships.
[DK] Vi dedikerer 'Voices of Resistance' til Palæstina og palæstinenserne, som har levet under besættelse i 76 år. Ved at udforske krydsfeltet mellem det at være en queer araber minder dette kortfilmsprogram os om, at queerness kun er i modstrid med undertrykkelsessystemer. Det tager os med på en mangefacetteret og poetisk rejse, der viser modstandsfigurer mod den israelske besættelse, palæstinensiske drag queens og intime familierelationer.
In Salah Saadi's short film 'Borekas', a Palestinian son heads back to Munich, with his father offering to drive him to the airport. When their car breaks down, they are left waiting, which gives them an unexpected chance to reconnect.
