Uchronia: Parallel Histories of Queer Revolt

Fil Ieropoulos
Documentary, Essay : 97' / Avantgarde, Art & Artists, Performance, Queer

Inspired by Arthur Rimbaud’s “A Season in Hell” and produced by Charlie Kaufman, "Uchronia" invites us to meet the French poet’s ghost embarking on a time-travel adventure. His delirious visions become portals opening onto alternative timelines – or ‘uchronias’. Rimbaud gains the opportunity to meet revolutionary figures such as Emma Goldman, David Wojnarowicz and Marsha P. Johnson. Together, they explore the possibility of social change and reflect on the meaning of revolution in times of disillusionment.
