    Pride Outdoor Cinema

    By Filmhuis Cavia @ Radio Radio, Pazzanistraat 3, Amsterdam

    Southern Sorceresses + Degenere

    Filmhuis Cavia is a community-run cinema with more than forty years of existence. Part of that long history has been created together with LGBTQ+ communities who have gathered in our filmhuis to organise and watch different programs and festivals such as TranScreen, Roze Filmdagen, Porn Film Festival Amsterdam, Kissable Screens, and several stand-alone movies that center queer people.

    For this occasion we join efforts with Radio Radio to celebrate Amsterdam as a WorldPride capital, bringing our summer outdoor cinema to Westerpark. We’ll screen a selection of films that are festive, while also inviting us to reflect on topics such as patriarchy, racism, coloniality and heteronormativity through the lens of queerness.

    Southern Sorceresses

    Southern Sorceresses follows the drift of performances and improvisations by seven queer artists through the streets of downtown São Paulo in a cinematic experience that makes visible the persistence of archaic gender and race prejudices in the common imagination. At the heart of this polyphonic narrative is the importance of political resistance through alliances of common struggle between LGBTQIA+ collectives, black people, indigenous people, and homeless workers.

    Degenere

    Dorothy's dream was to perform on stage in a skirt and be recognized as the woman she was, but she died before fulfilling it. Her best friend Misael, a 60 year old gay man, will make it happen. In Chocó, the Colombian state with the largest afro-descendant population and the highest poverty rates, Misael creates the first queer folk dance group together with four trans women and four gay men, questioning their traditions that are defended by cultural values in order to erase their queerness.

    Pride is a riot

    By Sexyland @ Het Homomonument, Westermarkt, Amsterdam

    On the peak day of World Pride, SEXYLAND is stepping it up a notch at the Homomonument. Or rather: a whole mouthful of razor-sharp teeth!
    Pride is a protest? Yeah, duh.

    But is that message still getting through loud and clear? No. That’s why PRIDE IS A RIOT!

    On Saturday 1 August, around two hundred speakers, live performers, artists and DJs will climb the barricades to really shake things up. The whole spectrum of colours will be represented, whilst at the same time we’ll be focusing on the people who need it most: transgender, intersex, non-binary, and yes: cisgender straight allies. Because without the full support of the majority of that last group, the queer community will never move forward.

    Kokomo City + Mr. Dimitris and Mrs. Dimitroula

    Filmhuis Cavia is a community-run cinema with more than forty years of existence. Part of that long history has been created together with LGBTQ+ communities who have gathered in our filmhuis to organise and watch different programs and festivals such as TranScreen, Roze Filmdagen, Porn Film Festival Amsterdam, Kissable Screens, and several stand-alone movies that center queer people.

    For this occasion we join efforts with Radio Radio to celebrate Amsterdam as a WorldPride capital, bringing our summer outdoor cinema to Westerpark. We’ll screen a selection of films that are festive, while also inviting us to reflect on topics such as patriarchy, racism, coloniality and heteronormativity through the lens of queerness.

    Kokomo city

    In the wildly entertaining and refreshingly unfiltered documentary Kokomo City, filmmaker D. Smith passes the mic to four Black transgender sex workers in Atlanta and New York City – Daniella Carter, Koko Da Doll, Liyah Mitchell, and Dominique Silver – who unapologetically break down the walls of their profession. Holding nothing back, the film vibrates with energy, sex, challenge, and hard-earned wisdom.

    Mr. Dimitris and Mrs. Dimitroula

    Dimitris lives her life in Skala Skamnias, the conservative Greek fishing village where she was born. She nursed her dying parents and now lives alone, able, at last to enjoy her femininity by dancing in the street to old pop records, watched by her cat. Misunderstood by family but celebrated by journalists covering the refugee crisis, her resilience is captured by the camera. She recalls time spent away from Lesvos and conscription into the Greek army. Gently observed and interviewed by a Lesbian film maker similarly aware of what it means to grow up different in a tiny traditional community, their shared humanity and mutual respect shine through this touching biographical film.

    A red carpet for everyone who belongs here.
    During World Pride Amsterdam, 't Mandje and the Zeedijk neighbourhood community are hosting the Zeedijk Pride Stride — a community catwalk on the Zeedijk where everyone gets to show their new self, their true self, or their proud self.

    Guided by an MC who tells your story, you walk the red carpet while the crowd cheers you on. Whether you're trans, queer, a longtime Wallengebied local, or just fiercely proud of something — you belong on this carpet.

    Fashion. Community. Activism. Visibility. Especially now, when some expressions are under pressure — we choose to show up and be seen.
