An improvised film about our worlds at the brink, on the edge, in front of a crisis. To stand on the side of life, by seeing the resistance to genocide in Palestine as a turning point to overcome.
The mutability of the body and the mobility of identity: queered pop culture, drag, lip-sync and performance.
To Rococo Rot member Robert Lippok performing for the first time in the UK with his solo project.
Each film in this programme celebrates process; the decay of emulsion, the properties of dust and dirt, the manipulation of time. Post the dawn of the digital age, we reflect on our love of the film form, celluloid as an object, a medium and a physical entity.
Durational group-mind drone and clatter: bamboo, electronics, the contents of your local ironmongers bin. A 3-hour set from this legendary Japanese improvisation group.
Why won’t the idea of the particle or individual go away? Is the measurement problem in physics a documentary film issue? What can a human be without its crutches of life-time and measure?

How can we imagine bodies not as an end in themselves, but as a medium through which we can become one another’s means?
A poetic multi-screen performance about “the inadequacy of the arbitrary passing moment and the impossibility of permanence”. About time and change.
An occasion for commotion, and a chorus of motions. Choreography rotating your revolutions and then some.
This mini, late-night ball will include categories inspired by the events earlier in the weekend.
