Wracamy po wakacjach z pierwszym w Polsce pokazem „Photo Booth” w reżyserii legendarnego kanadyjskiego reżysera Johna Greysona. To jednocześnie queerowy musical o pingwinach, split-screen opera o sabotowaniu Eurowizji, quasi-dokument o ruchu BDS, a przede wszystkim głos za Palestyną. To film, którego nie da się opisać w 2 akapitach, trzeba go zobaczyć samemu. Po seansie połączymy się z reżyserem na wideo-rozmowę. Seans i rozmowa odbędzie się tylko w języku angielskim. 🎥 Film: „Photo Booth”, reż John Greyson, 2022, Kanada 🎤 Prowadzenie: Daniel Oklesiński 📅 Data: 25 września, czwartek ⏰ Czas: 20:00 (prelekcja), 20:10 (film), 22:00 (Q&A z Johnem Greysonem) 💸 TAX: FREE Za projekt odpowiada Daniel Oklesiński, redaktor działu filmowego w magazynie „Replika” i opiekun pokazów klasyki na LGBT+ Film Festival. https://www.instagram.com/danieloklesinski/ W grafice wykorzystano pracę @blacklodgepress. --- We're coming back with Polish premiere of "Photo Booth" of the legendary Canadian filmmaker. In own words of its director, John Greyson, it is a "mad musical on queer BDS." But it's also an opera, and a film about penguins, and about Eurovision. But mainly, it is a strong pro-Palestine voice. After the film, we will talk via video with John Greyson himself. Film will be shown in an original version with ONLY English subtitles. Description: Outraged by the latest bombing of Gaza, Palestinian queer activists Hamza and Walid recruit queer novelist Jean Genet to help them sabotage the Eurovision song contest in Jericho. Their method? Secure the collaboration of Buddy and Pedro, Toronto’s famous gay penguins… The emergence of queer BDS (boycott, divestment, sanctions) as a dynamic Palestinian-led global movement is brought to vivid life through interviews and actions, opera and agitprop, protests and pranks. Recounting fifteen years of passionate activism in Toronto and worldwide, Photo Booth juxtaposes a surreal operatic narrative with documentary scenes that explore pride and pink-washing, gay soldiers and homo-nationalism, Queers Against Israeli Apartheid, and the accelerating weaponization of anti-Semitism.
