Queer in Indonesia

Written by Brigitte Vasallo. Posted in Queer

Children of SrikandiThe last time I wrote something in this blog was to announce that I took a (¿Deserved?) Holiday social networking. “Fifteen days” I said then, and nearly two months ago.

What made me get out of this long nap is fantastic news: “Children of Srikandi”, film produced by my admired Angelika Levi, be presented at the Berlinale.

“Children of Srikandi” Collective is a film about queer women in Indonesia, the most populous Muslim country in the world. The directors have told their own stories on camera of her peers, gathering in their own lives the myth Srikandi, epic warrior princess Mahabharata,  a character neither male nor female, but changing, variable, Ambigu @: queer.

At the moment, we have the trailer. Hopefully in the coming months we can announce the ability to see the full documentary somewhere in earth or networks.
