Join us on March 16 for a series of film screening. To celebrate International Womxn's Day, the programme aims to create a space of belonging, a space for love and joy in womxnhood.
The concept of abundance is formed by our affinity with each other. It travels through communities in its situated geographies. As in Mandarin language, Womxn shares the same spelling as 我们, which means We in English.
This programme connects sinophone women and queer filmmakers, through a series of film screenings, discussions, and empowering activities. It navigates from the inland birthplace to the senior house of the unmarried womxn’s group on the coast, from the synchronised dance choreography to the uncommon language we met in, from the indigenous Hmong’s land to diaspora towards statelessness.
Quoting our sister, the Black Feminist Alexis Pauline Gumbs, “Thank you to those of you who have pushed through portals already, even out of this life. Thank you for those of you living and evolving, the vulnerability of your newness is an example to us all. Thank you to those who hold me accountable, who expect me to be who I need to become.”
This programme is a journey for thanking You and becoming We.
