In Orlando (1928), Virginia Woolf tells the story of a young man who ends up being a woman. Almost 100 years later, 25 trans and non-binary people between the ages of 8 and 70 take on the role of Orlando in Paul B. Preciado’s film adaptation.
The screening is free of charge.
The screening takes place as part of the event series Körper oder Utopie. Together with Fokus e.V., Buchhandlung zur Heide and Museumsquartier Osnabrück, the series invites you to 4 events. 2 events will take place in the Kunsthalle Osnabrück and 2 in the Museumsquartier Osnabrück.
Our bodies are the places where we feel, think and act. But to what extent are they also part of utopias? [A utopia is an idea of a future. It is usually an idea of a positive future]. Let’s imagine a society without ascribed norms for gender and body. How would we meet? What roles would our origins, sexual orientations, gender identities and their expressions still play?
The series Körper oder Utopie invites you to think about these questions, discuss them and create utopias together.
