Welcome to the second edition of DocKvinne with 23-24 January at
🎬 Tales of female immigrants from East and West Asia to Scandinavia and their homelands.
💡Curatorial Concept - Homeland Everywhere ( 4 films )
Homeland, the land we call home.
Land where we first meet the world, where the mother tongue is spoken, where memories take roots before we realise.
Yet, homeland is not static. Some of us became wanderers, travellers, explorers - by choice or by force. Home starts to take unfamiliar forms. It flows, leaks, changes shape depending on the space we occupy. It breaks down into multiple pieces, and co-exist in different parts of the world.
Seen through the eyes of the state, our lives are reduced to categories of refugees, immigrants, skilled or unskilled workers. Our movements are framed as losses — of roots, community and belonging.
Through four female directors’ artistic expressions, other truths emerge. The feature documentaries in the second season of DocKvinne show how homelands fold, expand, and multiply. In our screenings, you will follow mothers, adoptees, artists, activists from Taiwan, South Korea, China and Iran and the tales of how they found old and new homelands.
💡Curatorial Concept - Awkward/Pleasure ( 3 short films )
What do mangosteen, a panda, and a s*x worker have in common?
Why does desire gravitate toward the awkward, the restrained, the timid?
The second edition of DocKvinne presents three unconventional Asian erotic short films that explore female s*xual intimacy in unlikely places. Far from exhibitionism and s*xual display, these works attend to moments of hesitation, negotiation, and emotional proximity—where desire emerges quietly, shaped by uncertainty and uneasiness.
Through a steamy sauna session, we invite a shared space for reflection: how do bodies navigate movement, distance, and misalignment? In the warmth of collective viewing, intimacy unfolds not as excess, but as attentiveness—felt in pauses, glances, and the courage to remain connected.
