Beautiful Confusion Collective

Venuše ve Švehlovce / english (subtit. CZ) / 75 min

“If I were to stand here in this dress and tell you I don’t feel like a woman, would you believe me?”
Black Dress is a euphoric solo exploration of nonbinary femme identity told through story, dance and 12 black dresses from performer Becka McFadden’s own wardrobe. Shot through with humour, vulnerability and queer joy, Black Dress invites you on a journey of self-discovery and celebration. From a sunny terrace in Calabria, to the challenges of gender neutral pronouns in Czech, to a queer utopian ski lodge that doesn’t actually exist (yet), Black Dress will make you laugh, think and - above all - feel pleasure.
