CHILDREN OF THE MOON: NYC TOUR

"Children of the Moon" is a program of selected work by Queer/Trans BIPOC artists from Latin America, the Caribbean, First Nations and descendants. The film screening showcases a variety of forms including experimental, diary, essay films, narrative and documentary approaches. As a form of redefining by undefining, Children of the Moon explores the organic nature of gender, identity and spirituality within the collective queer voice as a unified community. An experience rendered vulnerable to a heteronormative universe that often sacrifices QTBIPOC bodies as a consequence of their manifestation.

Curatorial team: Anto Astudillo and Lupe Campos

Hijes de la Luna es una curatoría de trabajos Cuir/Trans BIPOC de Latinoamérica, el Caribe y descendientes. La muestra incluye cortometrajes narrativos, video ensayos, documentales, filmación de registro diario y videos/filmes experimentales. Como una forma de redefinirse a través de la indefinición, el programa explora el carácter fluido y orgánico del género, la identidad y la espiritualidad dentro de la voz Cuir colectiva como una comunidad unificada. Siendo esta una experiencia que se vuelve vulnerable a un universo heteronormado que muchas veces sacrifica estos cuerpos distintos como consecuencia de su manifestación.
