DESCRIPTION
This year's Arab* Underground stretches far beyond the pre-conceived borders of the so-called "Orient". Instead, we ascertain that human kind is no longer confined by the states or borders that we were born into.Our program seeks to bring perspectives around descendants of Arabs, Berber, Turks, Kurds, Armenians, Persians, Afghans, around North Africa and West Asia, around Islam, queerness vs. homophobia, Western imperialism and liberation struggles. Through workshops, talks, film screenings and various performances we want to show the diversity of the MENA region and critically reflect contemporary racism and growing.In addition to the main acts performing at the Fusion stages, Theatre, Cinema and ConTent, we warmly welcome you to our space located between Dubstation and Safe for a continuous program of workshops, films, a virtual reality experience, and diverse music and theatre performances.
