Such Feeling
A time capsule is created, a safe space, a three-dimensional plane of endless tenderness. An exhibition of sensations, emotions, thoughts and meditations, intertwined with performance art. Such Feeling, a documentary by Alex Baczyński-Jenkins, introduces us to Aaa, Billy, Dawid, Filipka and Olo. Artists from a Polish queer collective who show us the most powerful anti-capitalist, anti-patriarchal, anti-transphobic, anti-homophobic (re)action ever: gestures of intimacy. It's in the connection, it's in the space of time, it's in the dialog of silences and words, it's in the gentle caresses that we can find the real disruption to the system. It is also in protest - in all its forms - that resistance is given body (of art, of politics). These are the natural exercises and experiments in the routine of those we follow in this documentary. These are the voices of the fight against pain, the fight against hatred, the fight against injustice: the invitation is made to listen and stay - and dance, sing, shout for and - with them.
