Visite #12 is realised as part of Cinema Sessions, an annual collaboration between Out of Sight and Morpho.

15:00-16:20 | Chapter 2. WOMB WARRIORS
Celebrating and mourning the womb as a bearer of tears and fears. The womb as a site of receptivity, reflexivity, revolution, and resolution. Three short films sharing the pain and trauma of the female body within a patriarchal medical system, followed by a live Grunt performance by Diane Mahin.

Carole Roussopoulos, Y’A QU’À PAS BAISER!
Tabita Rezaire, SUGAR WALLS TEADOM
Diane Mahín, GRUNT (performance)
17:00-18:30 | Chapter 3. UNIONISING
Revolución Puta is a political manifesto in the first person. Exploring the world of sex work from the perspective of the women portrayed, the film opens a debate on its taboos and precariousness. After the screening of the film there is a conversation with Utsopi and Boysproject. Utsopi is a Belgian community organization that defends the rights of sex workers, and Boysproject is an Antwerp-based social organisation for men, non-binary individuals and trans women who earn money from sex.
Maria Galindo & Mujeres Creando, REVOLUCIÓN PUTA
19:00-22:00 | Chapter 4. UTOPIA
Let’s view the erotic as a teacher, be cautious of censorship, and grow collectively towards a destiny filled with love, surrender, and ecstasy. Let’s unleash the body, its wisdom, its power, its fury, and its fluids. In resistance, we dance; for resilience, we dance!
With Bloody Mary performance by Isabel Burr Raty and pole dance performances by Jezebel Studio.
Isabel Burr Raty, THE BLOODY MARY PERFORMANCE (participatory lecture)
Thilde, Spring Showers & Zora The Hooker, JEZEBEL STUDIO POLE PERFORMANCE
