Queer Existence as Collective Choreography
Screening of short films and discussion with Michal Durda and Paulína Pinková / cz /
The two independent short films by Michal Durda and Paulina Pinková explore the concept of “queer” through social and collective choreography. The screening will be followed by a discussion with the artists, moderated by Nela Pietrová. The films address the themes of chemsex and folklore from a queer perspective, incorporating elements of storytelling, dance, and music. These are collective rituals that can be appropriated as methods of everyday rebellion.

Suumil Móokt’aan: weaving life anew from the territory
Valiana Aguilar (Sinanché, Yucatan) / ro /

What does it mean to re-root ourselves in a territory?
For the Maya family collective Suumil Móokt’aan, this question is a starting point for reclaiming knowledge, practices and ways of life inherited from their elders. Their work takes place in Yucatán, a region shaped by the dispossession and extractive exploitation of Indigenous territories, as well as by the decline of rural farming and the loss of traditional knowledge.
In this presentation, Valiana will share the story behind, introducing the Kuxam Dsuum, or “living rope”, a symbol of the connection between Maya people, and the story of Solar Maya, a space they have developed for learning, resistance and the recovery of ancestral knowledge alongside new Indigenous techniques.
Suumil Móokt’aan is regenerating a hectare of land formerly used for henequen monoculture through a syntropic agroforestry system. Inspired by the structure and processes of the forest, the system brings together diverse species and emphasises cooperation, soil regeneration and care. For the collective, restoring the land is inseparable from restoring relationships: with ancestral knowledge, with food, with other species and with the territory itself. Their practice proposes regeneration not as a return to an untouched past, but as an ongoing process of learning, adapting and re-establishing food sovereignty in everyday life.
