CSD x Anomalie

by Marie | Party

DJ Hell blurs the orders of time with his mix of modern electronic music and 1980s influenced sounds.
The legendary selector has been stimulating dance-floors since 1978 and there will be no exceptions for this sexy CSD warmup.
Founder of the Dresden based, Safe Space focused ‘Rawmantique’, Rakans will be providing his eclectic and unique approach to music in the Hangar. Shifting between hard techno and more emotional grooves, Rakans takes the crowd on a dramatic journey with every set. Gegen resident OCD also joins us, bringing tough, raw, rhythmic aspects to the floor.
Her powerful ability to turn order into chaos behind the decks will render dancers seductively entranced. Whilst Milan based and ‘CLOSER’ daytime party creator Rorschack will also be showcasing a deep passion for enlightening Techno music, uniting the floor in dance.
Closing things, they have Raël, whose fast, hard, relentlessly ravey sets are the perfect way to close out any beautiful evening.

LADIES, GENTLEMEN & EVERYONE IN BETWEEN
Dir. Jad Wadi
2019 | 10 min | Lebanon
Arabic | English subtitles
In a visual essay of day-to-day props and itineraries in Beirut, the gendered nature of Arabic is exposed. Quotidian elements, whether formally gendered or transformed into something that is, become part of a personal narrative through sound and graphic fragments. This experiment challenges the notion of the binary as Wadi navigates through the city as both male, female, and neither.

BELLYDANCE VOGUE
Dir. Hadi Moussally
2020 | 5 min | Lebanon, France
Arabic | English subtitles
Hadi’s birthday landed on the 3rd of April, 2020, during the lockdown, and for the first time, he celebrated it all by himself.

THE LAST PARADISE
Dir. Sido Lansari
2019 | 14 min | Morocco, France
French | English subtitles
This is the almost true story of Sami. In Casablanca, he only dreams about dancing and Egyptian divas in the hairdressing salon where he works. Until the day he meets Daniel, who helps him discover Paris in the midst of a gay revolution. By mixing archive images and analog photographs, Sido Lansari draws an intimate portrait of a young man from childhood to exile, where he discovers himself coming from the “last homosexual paradise”.

WIFI RIDER
Dir. Roxy Rezvany
2020 | 12:42 min | UK, Jordan, Palestine
Arabic, English | English subtitles
Life is lonely for young Palestinian, Shukri. He spends his days on the internet, immersed in a world where Western popstars preach self-love and unity, and where he can forget the lack of acceptance he faces in everyday life. But a life dreaming of paradise abroad does not bode well for a teenager stuck in East Jerusalem. He desperately wants to connect with others like him, who feel caught between an occupation, globalization, and the universal growing pains that come with adulthood.

DASTAK
Dir. Fazal Ahmad
2021 | 10 min | Pakistan]
Urdu | English subtitles
On the tv news, the entire country has embraced an inclusive philosophy. A young gay man wakes up one day to the sounds of celebration on the streets. Is it real, or is he still dreaming?

OUTSIDERS
Dir. Hannah Cauhépé
Documentary
2021 |10 min | Turkey, France
English OV
In Erdogan’s Turkey, being queer isn’t a crime (yet), but it can still make your life a living hell. This is why some community members have decided to claim their right to exist, loud and proud, with a soccer ball.

* Soura 2022 Sneak Peek *

A date takes an unexpected turn in this meditation on race, politics, and history in Germany.

The Berlin Pride Parade Celebrated 50 Years of Stonewall

by Frank | Events, Photos

Last Saturday around 1 Million people came to the streets in Berlin to participate in the 40th Berlin Pride Parade. It was a big anniversary for Berlin and possibly also the biggest turnout in terms of people who came to walk or watch. But it was also a meaningful anniversary for the entire Pride movement worldwide. Exactly 50 years ago the Stonewall Riots took place in New York which started the entire LGBTQI movements and all the Pride Parades in the rest of the world in the years and decades that followed.

Even though the parade might seem like a big colorful and joyful street party that celebrated sexual liberty and hedonism there are still important messages sent out into the world with such events. We don’t even have to look very far: Hate crimes against LGBTQI people have gone up in Berlin in recent years. In many countries in the world, Pride Parades are suppressed by governments, such as in Russia, Turkey, and Poland. And most dramatically, many countries still criminalize homosexuality – in the worst cases even punish it by death.

So when we go to the streets in Berlin, we don’t just march for our own accomplishments in terms of LGBTQI rights, but also in solidarity for all those queer people in the world who are still fighting for acceptance and equality.

Who was this Christopher Street Guy? – My Sister’s First Pride Parade

by Claudio | Events, Photos, Videos

Berlin is a crazy bubble in terms of diversity. Nowhere else in Germany are there so many different spaces, places and outlets for the members of the LGBTQI Community. Of course Berlin is not perfect in terms of safety for the said community. We still have harassments of transsexuals on a monthly basis, and I would not always dare to kiss a man at Kotti at night because you never know how the surroundings might react. Despite that, I am more than happy to call Berlin my home, since I feel that no other place in Germany has the same amount of freedom, tollerance and possibilities for people of different sexual orientations or gender identities.

The biggest celebration of this diversity is definitely the annual Christopher Street Pride Parade. Since I came to Berlin at the age of 18, I have been visiting the parade regularly. Some years I remember as stressful because of the heat and too many drinks. Or I felt that the event had turned too commercial, so I decided I’d rather visit an alternative demonstration instead. Other years the weather was a bit tricky. But nonetheless every parade has had its highlights and stolen kisses to tell of afterwards.

My personal highlight of this year was to bring along my little sister to Pride. It was her first big Pride parade and as I wanted to make the experience as memorable as possible, I showed her all the typical Pride rituals.

CSD Berlin 2017 – So Wet, So Good, So Tenga

by Claudio | Party, Photos

A couple of weeks ago we got a call with a seductive offer: Tenga, a Japanese brand specialized on male and female masturbation toys, asked us if we would make a photoshoot with their products, specifically the pride edition of their bestseller, right at the Christopher Street Day parade in Berlin. The task: the models of this shoot should be the visitors of the parade.

We thought about it and finally decided that having a “good excuse” to talk to cute strangers about masturbation on the Pride parade is not such bad job. Slurp!

What to do on the CSD Weekend 2017

by Andy | City Guide, Events, People

It is that time of the year! Call it Pride, call it Christopher Street day, call it “All the Queers are out on the streets”, all differences, frictions, and issues aside, it’s the week when all queer people are loud, visible and all over Berlin, proud of what they are and fighting for their place in society. For some protest means political actions, demonstrations, and speaches for some it’s dancing protest on Berlin’s streets and clubs. Any way it’s done, we are here, we are queer and there’s a lot for us to do this weekend. And the selection is as diverese as the queer community itself. Whether you’re into CSD or not, there is definitly something to participate for everyone.
