Med utgangspunkt i ideen om "hjem" som et urolig konsept, bringer dette programmet sammen fem internasjonale korte fiksjon- og eksperimentellfilmer. Disse moderne kortfilmene utforsker de fysiske og psykiske sammensetningene av det hjemlige, tilhørighet og hva det betyr å føle seg "hjemme".
Innledningen til programmet vil plassere temaet "hjem" i feministisk litteratur, diskusjon og aktivisme.

Christina Demetriou, kurator av programmet, vil besøke Harstad og introdusere programmet. Hun er en uavhengig filmprogrammerer basert i Berlin. Hun har en mastergrad i Gender and kulturstudier fra Goldsmiths , London. Hun startet og driver LUNAR, et prosjekt forpliktet til feministisk politikk og praksis, og søker å utforske nye måter å kuratere.

English subtitles and introduction in English

Beginning with the idea of ‘home’ as an uneasy concept, this programme brings together five international short fiction and experimental film works. These contemporary short films explore the physical and psychological assemblages of the domestic, belonging and what it means to feel ‘at home’.

The programme introduction will situate the theme of ‘home’ in feminist writing, discussion and activism.

Christina Demetriou, the curator of the programme, will visit Harstad and introduce the programme. She is an independent film programmer based in Berlin. She holds an MA in Gender and Culture Studies from Goldsmiths, London. She initiated and runs LUNAR, a project committed to feminist politics and practices, and seeks to explore new ways of curating.

dir. Benjamin Ramírez Pérez
