“The strong women told the faggots that there are two important things to remember about the coming revolutions. The first is that we will get our asses kicked. The second is that we will win.” – Larry Mitchell, The Faggots and Their Friends Between Revolutions
In Berlin, activists opposing the genocide in Gaza stage an adaptation of The Faggots and Their Friends Between Revolutions amid mounting state repression. Moving between rehearsals and militant action, the film lets the 1970s queer manifesto resonate today, tracing how resistance shapes encounters with German bureaucracy and offering a language for collective survival.
Between Revolutions situates solidarity with the Palestinian people, artistic practice and antifascist resistance within a shared political horizon, revealing how these commitments shape communities at a moment when state-sponsored violence is increasingly normalised, and asking how performance can re-establish forms of artistic ancestry.
A conversation with the filmmaker will follow the screening.
