Performance

Paula and Rodrigo are young, queer artists, like many others in Berlin. Outside of their utopian rehearsal room, they have to fight German red tape. Paula's and Rodrigo's drive to stand out leads them to form a performance collective. The rehearsal room is a space of utopias, but can they make it out the door? PERFORMANCE is a feature film by Hanna Bergfors Kornelia Kugler that plays with the conventions of fiction and documentation, what is on stage and what is at stake. "A life in no budget, energetically self-confident and refreshingly independent. A formally courageous and consequent work." (Crossing Europe Filmfestival)
