An evening to explore gender diversity in all its forms through photography, film, performance, music and exchanging ideas. Come as you are or want to be, changing facilities can be provided. This will be a safe and welcoming space for all, however you identify.
Nobody Passes Perfectly is a subtle, humoristic and thought evoking film about the courage to change oneself radically. Director Saskia Bisp invites her audience to places where the gender isn’t a predefined condition, dictated only by biology, but a very personal part of the self that can be challenged, investigated and altered. Meet Tomka who is right in the middle of such a process. He lives in a very loving relationship with his Lesbian girlfriend Lotte. Together they try to imagine what his transitioning will mean for their relationship. And meet Erik, who was once a heterosexual woman, and has finally decided to live his life as a man.
A Series of Questions, an ongoing photo essay by L. Weingarten, exploring the power dynamics inherent in the questions asked of transgender, transsexual, genderqueer, gender-variant, and gender non-conforming people.
