PUSSY CRUISING
2021, 7 min 30 sec, Germany
What would cruising among lesbians look like?
Cruising seems to be a normal part of the gay culture and we all know scenes from famous gay films where men cruise in parks or other public spaces. At the same time, cruising is barely practised among lesbians. Why? Pussy Cruising tackles this topic in a humorous way and takes you on a flirtatious journey between vibrant fantasy and mundane reality.
Wie würde Cruising unter lesbischen Frauen aussehen?
Cruising scheint ein normaler Bestandteil des schwulen Lebensstils zu sein, wir alle kennen Szenen aus berühmten schwulen Filmen, wo Männer nachts in Parks oder an anderen öffentlichen Orten cruisen. Gleichzeitig ist Cruising unter Lesben kaum bekannt. Warum? Pussy Cruising setzt sich auf humorvolle Weise mit diesem Thema auseinander und nimmt dich mit auf eine kokette Reise zwischen lebhafter Fantasie und profaner Realität.
¿Cómo sería el cruising entre lesbianas?
El cruising forma parte de la cultura gay y todos conocemos escenas de películas gay famosas en las que los hombres buscan sexo anónimo en parques u otros espacios públicos. Al mismo tiempo, el cruising apenas se practica entre las lesbianas. ¿Por qué? Pussy Cruising aborda este tema de una manera divertida y te lleva a un viaje de coqueteo entre la vibrante fantasía y la realidad mundana.
Come sarebbe il cruising tra lesbiche?
Il fenomeno sembra essere una normale sfaccettatura della cultura omosessuale maschile e abbiamo tutti in mente le scene di famosi film gay in cui gli uomini fanno cruising nei parchi o in altri luoghi pubblici. Allo stesso tempo, la pratica è esercitata a mala pena dalle lesbiche. Perché? Pussy Cruising affronta l'argomento in maniera spiritosa e vi conduce in un viaggio malizioso tra vibrante fantasia e realtà materiale.
Kakšen bi bil cruising med lezbijkami?
Zdi se, da je cruising običajen del gejevske kulture, in vsi poznamo prizore iz znanih gejevskih filmov, v katerih moški cruisajo po parkih ali drugih javnih prostorih. Hkrati pa cruising med lezbijkami skorajda ne obstaja. Zakaj? Pussy Cruising se te teme loteva na humoren način in te popelje na koketno potovanje med živahno fantazijo in vsakdanjo resničnostjo.

NOT YOUR ORDINARY SISTER
2019, 4 min, Germany / Slovenia
Just another lesbian vampire film?
''Not Your Ordinary Sister'' is a queer satire which, in a witty yet direct way, addresses both the startling popularity of lesbian vampire films as well as the lack of proper representation in queer cinema on the subject of queerness within the conservative and patriarchal religious organizations (lesbian nuns / lesbian ex-nuns).

We've all done it before. We felt uncomfortable in one place, and thought that running away would solve everything. But it didn't. What is home? What is comfort? At which point will we take a risk, give it a real try, what will make us stay? And: Are we able to stay at all?
Personal struggle of a queer woman in her 30s, who is trying to find her place under the sun.
:: Wir haben es alle schon mal gemacht. Wir haben uns an einem Ort unwohl gefühlt und gedacht, Wegrennen würde alles lösen. Aber das tat es nicht. Was ist Zuhause? Was ist Geborgenheit? An welchem Punkt wagen wir es und versuchen es richtig, was hält uns an einem Ort? Und: Sind wir überhaupt fähig, zu bleiben? ::
:: Todxs lo hemos hecho antes. Nos sentimos incómodxs en un lugar, y pensamos que huir resolvería todo. Pero no fue así. ¿Qué es el hogar? ¿Qué es la comodidad? En ese momento nos arriesgaremos, lo intentaremos de verdad, ¿qué nos hará quedarnos? Y: ¿podemos quedarnos? ::

QUEER ARTIVISM
2013, 96 min, Slovenia
Queer Artivism offers an insight into five different queer film festivals through video footage and interviews with the organizers. With this it gives people who do not have the opportunity to visit various queer film festivals, a chance to experience at least five by going to just one film festival/screening.
Additionally it is a tribute to queer film festivals and presents different points of view on the current status of queer film festivals and queer films. It is also a tribute to filmmakers, festival organizers and all the people who usually remain unseen, but without whom queer film festivals and queer films would not exist.
Throughout the documentary interviewees (festival organizers, filmmakers and musicians) share their personal stories and elaborate on the importance of queer film festivals and queer film, opening a new space for discussion, reflection and evaluation of queer film festivals and queer film in today’s society.

TAKE IT / BREAK IT
2011, 20 min, Slovenia
All lesbians are butch, all gays are feminine. Are you sure?
It's time to break those stereotypes and show a different side of who we are! After all, stereotypes are stereotypes and nothing more.
The film is a series of animations that questions our ideas of gender, sexuality and identity. Battling stereotypes, it provokes us to rethink much of what we understand and how we understand it.
BIO
Maša Zia Lenárdič and Anja Wutej are self-taught filmmakers born in Slovenia, where Anja graduated from Faculty of Arts and Maša from Faculty of Criminal Justice and Security. In 2013, they moved to Berlin, Germany where they now live, work and create.
