OTHERNESS (ALTERITATS)
Alteritats (Otherness) is a compilation of the voices of Lesbian experiences. A journey through the feelings, childhood memories, desires and joys of women of all ages and backgrounds. How is life built in a heteronormative society? How is oppression experienced? How to love? Alteritats (Otherness) tries to answer all these questions that are usually made invisible because of the double fact of being a woman and a lesbian, through a conjunction of visual essay, intimate portraits and group conversations of lesbian women.

PASSION
PASSION is an intensely personal film about longing, healing, and belonging where filmmaker Maja Borg illustrates their unique process of dealing with trauma in the wake of a destructive relationship. In seeking to reclaim intimacy and re-establish boundaries Borg is drawn to queer BDSM practice, through which they’re able to explore their long-forgotten Christian heritage. Adopting rituals and play from both queer BDSM and Christian communities, Borg finds themselves able to acknowledge and accept their own longings, confronting their darkest parts in order to move forwards. The film tells the stories of queer BDSM practitioners in Berlin, Stockholm and Barcelona and portrays the humanity at the heart of the practise while illuminating its similarities with Christianity on an emotional and perhaps even spiritual level.
