The Aquarium is a 48-hour journey into Modern Cairo following the parallel lives of Youssef and Leila. Hosni Mubarak is still in power and the ‘Kefaya’ Movement for Change is protesting in the streets. The Aquarium offers a salient example of using innovative filmic language in Egyptian cinema to expose many societal and political issues that plague Egyptian society. Yousry Nasrallah’s major works are often inspired by very simple details. The Aquarium was inspired by something Nasrallah read in passing in a children’s magazine about the memory of fish. Nasrallah is set to draw international recognition with his work. He was also in the streets of Cairo with his camera during the 2011 Revolution that saw Mubarak falling.

Queeristan Benefiet
Thursday 19th of April, 7pm Queeristan benefiet voku
“What is Queeristan? Certainly not a(nother) country. Behind it there is a nomadic collective of activists based in Amsterdam whose interests do not exactly rhyme with law&order, nor with setting up new borders. Nonetheless Queeristan is all about providing a space. Not only an autonomous space that dodges logics of profit and commercialization, but also a platform to both explore and counter the normative workings of gender and identity. A safe environment for queers and a factory of resistance. Our critique departs from the simple fact that buying “normalcy” in the guise of being either male or female, a Dutch or a foreigner, gay or straight, either one or the other, simply means to bedisciplined by a choice made elsewhere, to be docile towards it, to keep your mouth and your eyes shut.
Bee-movie night, Sun April 15th
Sunday, 15th of April, 8pm Vanishing of the bees. Little bee. Big story.
Honeybees have been mysteriously disappearing across the planet, literally vanishing from their hives.
Known as Colony Collapse Disorder, this phenomenon has brought beekeepers to crisis in an industry responsible for producing apples, broccoli, watermelon, onions, cherries and a hundred other fruits and vegetables. Commercial honeybee operations pollinate crops that make up one out of every three bites of food on our tables.
