Die Filme Roan (2019) und Jackfruit (2021) zentrieren drei Generationen der vietnamesischen Diaspora in Deutschland. Sie zeigen die Verstrickungen von Queerness und generationsübergreifenden Konflikten, Migration, Patrilinearität und buddhistischer Spiritualität. Wir zeigen beide Filme und sprechen im Anschluss mit Thùy Trang Nguyễn (keine Pronomen) über die queeren Perspektiven und das Aufbrechen toxischer Stereotype in Nguyễns Filmschaffen.

Anmeldung E-Mail info@konfuzius-institut-heidelberg.de Alle Termine der Veranstaltung 'Wegen Hegel 1.0 – Filmisches Wirken zum Abbau toxischer Stereotype – Workshops und Filmscreenings': Inspired by real events and personal experiences during the COVID-19 pandemic, Popo FAN’s 范坡坡 (b. 1985) short film Wegen Hegel (2022) deals with the issue of discrimination in Germany. The story is set against the backdrop of the worldwide increase of verbal and physical attacks against Asians or people who are perceived as Asians since the beginning of the pandemic. At the same time, it highlights the discrimination of queer people of Asian descent based on prevailing toxic stereotypes. Acknowledging the transformative impact of cinematic works, the workshop will stimulate a conversation about the pressing questions in the construction of cultural, sexual, and gender identities that takes transcultural dynamics into account.
In the workshop we will invite external speakers such as Berlin-based queer filmmakers Popo FAN and Thùy Trang Nguyễn. Participants will explore the impacts of cinematic representations taking Wegen Hegel as an entry point and juxtaposing it with Thùy Trang Nguyễn’s perspectives. The visibility of queer Asians in German society and their representation in German film will also be discussed. Participants are welcome to only join parts of the program. Samstag, 14.
