Image Snatchers present: Mad Jakale In A Film We Haven't Seen

About

The regular, modular, surprising and never constant artistic and social evenings of Image Snatchers were created in various forms of collaboration by the colleagues of the collective The Feminalz. The group started developing their working methods in 2013 and continuously refines them in the evenings of technoburlesque with new artistic contributions, comments and statements that address the audience in the most direct way. In the Image Snatchers Present series, members of the group take a closer look at one of their technoburlesque characters. After Mathilda and Her Buns by Urška Vohar and The Lives and Deaths of H.P.D. by Loup Abramovici, it’s time for Mad Jakale.

We can be sad and cry about the fall, or we can morbidly dwell on the fact that the world is killing us because it contradicts ecofeminist principles of environmentalism, does not aspire to an egalitarian society and pacifism and mysticism. We can continue to fight for more attention and show more and more strength, or we can talk openly about our privileges. We can put on a performance and have fun doing it. Sure, if you like to have fun and we like to entertain, we can have fun together. And if you enjoy seeing us enjoy, we can enjoy ourselves together. And when we imagine that, we can quickly see that it's entirely possible.
