The short film program: Voices of Resistance
We are dedicating ‘Voices of Resistance’ to Palestine and the Palestinians, who have been livingunder 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.
The panel:
Following the screening, we invite you to stay for a discussion, shedding a light on why the Palestinian liberation is a queer issue.
Speakers:
Tarek Choheiber (he/him) - Danish-Palestinian psychology student and activist, Studerende mod Besættelsen (SMB), IF Palestine, and Queers against Occupation and Genocide (QAOG)
Mohammad Allou (he/him) - Asylum activist - Member, student assistant and community organiser at LGBT Asylum
// The panel will be held inside the cinema after the screening of ‘Voices of Resistance’ and will be approximately 45 min.
