A Festival supporting the struggle for Sex Workers’ Rights: share knowledge, discuss, dance and strategise!
Reveling in the geometric, mathematical and perceptual relationship between sound and form, this programme features a landmark work of experimental film in Kubelka’s Arnulf Rainer; a complex, enduring and expressive of structuralist or flicker films.
