”A Day in Her Life” Screening at the Queer*Fem Fest in Bonn!

This weekend, VOW Media goes to Bonn! We will attend the Queer*Fem Fest, screen and discuss ”A Day in Her Life” video collections. In 2010 and 2012, we worked with women and transwomen who were involved or had been involved in the sex industry in Amsterdam. We’re looking forward to showing and discussing their work.

If you’re in Bonn this Saturday, drop by at 17:00 at Cult 41, on Hochstadenring 41, 53119, in the meeting room.

Transformers Festival

Breaking the Spell will be screening at the 5th TransVormers Festival in our old studio at the Volkskrantgebouw.

TransVormers is hĂ©t festival in het Volkskrantgebouw waarin bands, DJ’s, beeldend kunstenaars, publicisten en performers elkaar ontmoeten rond het thema ’stedelijke transformatie’.

Het 5e TransVormersfestival zal in het teken staan van haar eigen transitie. Er komt een einde aan het huidige Volkskrantgebouw, het gebouw krijgt een nieuwe bestemming. We vieren nog 1x het Volkskrantgebouw zoals we dat blijven herinneren!
