Susana Ojeda: Moskitos

Film Screening/Workshop: Moskitos

Collective Dialogues on Diasporic Power and More-Than-Human Collaboration

Sat 11.01., 14.30h, TQW Studios, in English and Spanish

In this session, Susana Ojeda invites participants to reflect on the power of diasporic communities to invoke knowledge and collaborative learning with more-than-human beings. Through screening the short film "Moskitos", we will open a collective dialogue on some of the themes it explores – such as the power of community regeneration practices, decolonial interventions within the Viennese socio-political landscape, and the collaborative possibilities for learning alongside more-than-human entities. "Moskitos" depicts the ruins of European colonial civilisatory ambitions: a portal to a world and a future without us, in which other species flourish, and the earth reclaims her territory. A visual manifesto of an archaeology of a capitalist civilisation that failed. "Moskitos", though, survived!
