Film Poster of Lizzie Borden's Born in Flames, 1983, reprinted in The Independent: Film and Video Monthly, November 1983

Alsof je in de bioscoop zit en gestoord wordt door het commentaar van je buren, gaat onderwijzer, curator en BAK 2017–2018 Fellow Sepake Angiama in gesprek en geeft live commentaar tijdens een vertoning van de film Born in Flames (1983), geregisseerd door Lizzie Borden. De film, evenals het commentaar en gesprek, gaat in op vragen rondom feminisme, gender, politiek, ras, surveillance en politiegeweld.

In all continents, people have built matriarchal cosmologies sustained by complex rituals. In the advent of main modern religions and after centuries of colonizing invasions, the goddesses of antiquity were suppressed by the patriarchal structures that consolidated our era. However, they found ways to speak to us in the language of patterns, melodies, and poems. This workshop uses the voice as a method to reveal the presence of goddesses.
