Ferro's Bar

From the accounts of lesbian artists and militants, frequenters of Ferro's Bar, we are led to an episode central to the formation of the Brazilian lesbian movement in the early 1980s, the "uprising of Ferro's Bar". The film shows how lesbians are no longer a figure found only at night, inside apartments, and become a political subject that rises up against censorship of one of the lesbian periodicals with the largest circulation in the 1980s, "ChanacomChana". Ferro's Bar represents a space for the political-affective memory of its frequenters and a way of updating this collective and political history that is still pulsating.

The Lingering Now, Our Odyssey II

Created at the 2019 Avignon Festival, The Lingering Now, Our Odyssey II made a splash with audiences and critics alike. In a singular form that joins theatre and film, Christine Jatahy treats the subject of migration with infinite depth: “That which forces millions of individuals to be on the move. That which nationalism traps in refugee camps where life, suspended, elapses. No salvation for these men, these women, these children ripped from their ancestral homes with no promise of any future. A time that stretches endlessly where memories burn the heart, unable to move forward.”
