PERFORMANCES by Ahmad BáBá & Sergio R.Suárez
Gouden Zaal
Before queerness had a name in Arabic, it had stories, rituals, and bodies in motion.
‘Our Queer Future is a Past Tense اجساد من علق’ by Ahmad Bábá is a promenade performance that reimagines queer identity through a post-migration Arab* lens. Drawing on erased histories and classical texts, it conjures a sensorial space where queer Arab* bodies—made of memory, language, and resistance—refuse colonial time.
In ‘La Revisión’, Sergio R. Suárez x La Basal deconstruct flamenco as a site of rupture and reclamation. The body, stripped of neutrality, becomes an instrument of rage, intimacy, and radical empathy.
Together, these works resist fixed identities and imagine queerness as multiplicity in motion.

SCREENING OF SHORTS 1 (repetition)
Stageroom
We are brining together films that explore how bodies carry memory, desire, and resistance, tracing personal and collective journeys toward acceptance. Through nightlife, fantasy, digital mediation, and intimate rituals, these works reflect on what it means to be seen, to belong, and to embrace complexity in identity and connection.

LIVE MUSIC: Chose
Beurscafe
At the intersection of queer electro-pop, poetic urgency, and radical softness, chose is the sonic playground of Nath Jonniaux. Researcher, parent, and fierce wordsmith, Jonniaux crafts sharp, genre-blurring music that navigates the margins with grace and grit. From slam to chanson, their lyrics dismantle norms and open space for becoming.
In collaboration with the Trans* Solidarity Fund Belgium.
