with Jeannette Petri (Beyond Binary) and Stella Deborah Traub (Mit Euren Spuren collective)

How can queer identities be expressed linguistically and visually across generations? What meaning do terms and images have when it comes to showing oneself and being recognised? And how are marginalisation and inclusivity negotiated within queer communities? The protagonists invite you to an intergenerational talk in which they will discuss language, images and the power of self-labelling together with project partners. The focus will be on the space in between: the space between words and images, between generations and perspectives, between belonging and exclusion.

with Eray Gülay

Voguing is a dance style that emerged in Harlem, New York, in the 1980s. This unique form of expression, which emerged from the POC and LGBTQIA+ community there, opened up a free space in which you can empower yourself, celebrate your own identity and question social norms. Voguing is a celebration of creativity, courage and individuality. The workshop is an introduction and focuses on movement, empowerment and the rich history of ballroom culture.

A talk with Heinrich Horwitz, Klaus Lederer, Helge Mark, Nyke Slawik
moderated by Jurassica Parka

Despite the highest number of CSD parades worldwide in 2024 and a partially more open attitude towards LGBTQIA* people, violence and aggression against queer people is continuously on the rise. At a time of increasing social polarisation and global challenges to fundamental democratic values, the panellists will explore the extent to which the rights, visibility and public discourse surrounding queer realities allow conclusions to be drawn about the democratic constitution of our society. The film spans the spectrum from legal frameworks and media representation to the everyday realities of queer people.
