Queering S.W.A.N.A is a program of Queer short films from South West Asia and North Africa.
Over the past decade a large number political queer feminist film and art festivals have emerged through the underground activism and they celebrate the unheard diversity, creating safe(r) spaces and representation of minoritized groups. Aks International Minorities Festival is part of a festival family from South West Asian and North African (S.W.A.N.A) queer film festivals including Pink Life Queer Fest Turkey, Mawjoudin Queer Film Festival, Tunisia and Kooz-Aswat’s queer film festival, Palestine.
This short film programme is co-curated in cooperation with the Queer film festival from S.W.A.N.A region.
After the film screening we will invite you for a drink, music and fun at Cinematek’s Asta bar.
Total runtime: 104 min
