The way society perceives narratives, gazes and bodies of and on post-migrant girls and young women is the point of departure of Female Gaze. The questions it focuses on are: How and why do I present myself and how am I perceived? The producers and experts of Female Gaze do not have comprehensive answers to these questions but primarily solely personal ones. In the context of a workshop they challenge wisdoms and truths and interrogate role models and preconceptions.
Using performance, film and words, the protagonists find their own self-definition in a multi-disciplinary performance. This involves relishing in the disruption of quite a few things, and also setting many things straight. Female Gaze uncovers, interrupts, disrupts and most of all makes people want to engage with post-migrant femaleness. The outcome says it all: Female Kanak Attack!
