Feeling Uneasy - On Aesthetics of Transgression
Screening and conversation.
"Since there is no afterlife, the only hell is the hell of praying, obeying laws, and debasing yourself before authority figures, the only heaven is the heaven of sin, being rebellious, having fun, fucking, learning new things and breaking a many rules as you can. This act of courage is known as transgression" (Nick Zedd, The Cinema of Transgression Manifesto, 1985).
An introduction to the films, writings, music, and art that arose from New York’s underground culture of the 1980s and an invitation to discussing transgression and excess as strategies of resistance.
