I Don't Want to Be Just A Memory
A poignant document of the Berlin queer community honouring their joy and resilience in the face of marginalisation, health crises and loss.
Overview
Fellow Berlin queer community members together mourn the loss of their dead friends due to substance abuse and mental health crisis by sharing a few personal materials, stories and honest criticism about the club/nightlife scene. Resembling glowing-in-the-dark fungi such as Panellus stipticus, they transform dead bodies and memories into a collective structure that sustains future living - radiating the light together as a network of support and care.
Screened as part of BFI London Film Festival 2024 Experimenta Shorts programme.
