Holding the Light

Pakhuis de Zwijger, Monday, June 15 at 08:00 PM GMT+2

What kind of images survive in times of darkness? What does it mean to keep dreaming when exhaustion becomes part of everyday life? This programme brings together five Iranian short films that explore life in moments of pressure, uncertainty and fragile connection. The films move through spaces shaped by fear, distance, intimacy and tenderness, showing how political realities are felt in everyday gestures, silences and relationships. Borrowing its title from Home Work: Holding the Light, the programme understands light not as a simple symbol of hope or rescue, but as something people pass to one another. It appears in small moments: a face briefly visible in the dark, a voice reaching across distance, a gesture that keeps someone from disappearing. Across the five films, dreaming is not an escape from reality. It becomes a way of staying human within it. Moving between memory and the present, darkness and illumination, these films look not for heroes, but for the quiet ways people support one another through difficult times.

Homework: Holding the Light | Writer & Director: Majid Fakhrian

In a night class in a palm grove, the students, with the help of their teacher, experiment with different types of light and observing objects. Meanwhile, a blind child is searching for a classmate whose name is unfamiliar to all the students.

Memories of a Window | Writers and Directors: Mehraneh Salimian and Amin Pakparvar

Following crackdowns on protests in Iran, civilians begin documenting the unrest from behind windows. When a woman is shot while recording, a film student writes her a letter raising the question: Can revolution emerge from behind windows?

Slaughter | Writer & Director: Sahand Sarhaddi

“Besmel/Slaughter” is an experimental short film that delves into the archival and historical footage of the Iranian Revolution in 1979, depicting a symbolic narrative surrounding the ritualistic act of animal sacrifice, known as “Besmel”. It serves as an allegorical representation of a nation’s sacrifice amidst the backdrop of political transformations.

Taha | Writer and Director: Mahyar Mandegar

In a rundown Iranian circus in Los Angeles, 70-year-old groundskeeper decides to participate in the show in order to see what the trapeze dancer sees every night, up in the sky.

The Villain- Director: Parsa Ansari / Writers: Mobarakeh Mortazavi, Parsa Ansari

An aging man who plays the villain in an Iranian Passion Play is haunted by memories of his past and the woman he wronged many years ago.

🎬 Pierre (1976)

Filmhuis Cavia, Sunday, June 14 at 08:30 PM GMT+2

Jan Decorte | 1976 | BE | 90’ | EN subtitles

Theater director Jan Decorte’s first feature film spans a day and a night in the lonely life of a Brussels municipal employee. Pierre lives with his mother in an old-fashioned house in a declining working-class neighborhood. Every morning, Pierre takes the tram to work at city hall, where he listens to his colleagues’ jokes during his lunch break. His only hope of escaping his boredom and frustrations lies with a girl from the gymnastics club. One evening, when his mother is out, he invites her over to his place.

“One person is an inscrutable mystery to another. The ultimate meaning and motives behind most of the actions a person takes remain hidden from him. What, then, of knowledge—of the possibility of knowing another person’s motives? Should we not question the very existence of motives?” — Jan Decorte

OTION presents W.A.V.E

Felix Meritis, Friday, May 29 at 08:00 PM GMT+2

Part Two: Riding The Wave

OTION returns to Felix Meritis with the second part of W.A.V.E: We All Vibrate Eternally, an immersive performance series exploring the invisible forces that connect sound, body, and space. Through sound, movement, and ritual storytelling, OTION transforms live music into a fully spatial experience, where sound is not just heard, but physically felt.

The series unfolds in three chapters: Floating on the WAVE, Riding the WAVE, and Making the WAVE, each offering a distinct atmosphere within a continuous journey. Together with a sound artist and dancer, OTION activates three essential elements: space, voice, and body, guiding audiences along a path from listening, to embodiment, to creation; from surrender, to safety, to play.

Beginning with vibration as sound moving through space, shifting into vibration as sensation within the body and beyond, W.A.V.E explores how stillness, presence, sound, voice, song, movement, and dance shape both individual and collective experience. Join us on May 29th and step into OTION’s inner landscape, where vibration becomes a shared language and performance transforms into a living field. After the performance, join the After WAVE to relax, enjoy drinks, and dance to our live DJ. Whether or not you joined the first wave, you’re welcome in the second.

Line-up

OTION
OTION (Guillermo Armand Blinker)- Theo d’Or (VSCD) and Amsterdam Art Award (AFK) nominee (2024) Designer Award (VSCD) nominee 2025 – is a multidisciplinary artist who works with vibration as material. Through sound, movement, and ritual storytelling, OTION creates immersive experiences that attune bodies, spaces, and communities to one another.

Water is both source and guide in OTION’s practice, a living metaphor for continuity, memory, and transformation. Like water, his work moves between states: sonic, physical, spiritual. It flows through liminal spaces where identity softens, time expands, and new ways of being become possible.

Rooted in a background of choreography, dance, songwriting, and composition, OTION composes environments rather than performances. Harmonized, loop-based vocals form dense soundscapes. These vibrating layers carry the audience into ceremonial states, where movement, breath, and listening become acts of collective tuning.

OTION’s poetic lyricism weaves themes of transformation, spiritual connection, and a queer way of sensing the world. His work does not aim to be consumed, but entered: a shared frequency where personal and collective healing can unfold.

Jordan Achiano
Jordan Achiano is a multidisciplinary artist whose work spanning dance, photography, film, and performance serves as an exploration into the human essence. His practice is rooted in endless conversation with the self, navigating the specific complexities of a Surinamese identity within a Western landscape.

Everything Jordan creates begins with S.S.M.A. (Sacred Sexual Movement Alchemy), a personal ritual used to tap into a deep, creative reservoir. By honoring the “internal feminine,” he accesses a bridge to a raw, ancient power, allowing ancestral codes to surface as snippets of insight within his modern movements and visuals.

Jordan’s aesthetic is a deliberate fusion of the old and the new; a bridge between heritage and the future. Through the mastery of light, shadow, and form, he constructs “sacred spaces” that invite the viewer into a state of profound clarity.

Ultimately, Jordan aims to move beyond the superficial constraints of the modern world. He doesn’t just want you to observe his work; he seeks a deeper understanding of himself through the act of creation, inviting the audience to connect with their own souls instead of their time. He leaves you with a feeling that only you can define.

SHARC
SHARC (Siem Schellevis) is an artist director focusing on artist identity and art direction, and working at the intersection of body, perception, and meaning. He works with art made in short arcs, or as he calls it: SHARCS. His work does not aim to explain or persuade, but to reorient experience.

Drawing from martial arts science, ancient wisdom traditions, philosophy and hip hop, he designs immersive services that allow the artist to speak directly through and to the BODYMIND rather than the intellect.

SHARC is known for translating complex human mechanisms into simple, felt experiences. His direction is minimal, precise, and experiential. Less narrative. More signal. His work spans across film, music, language, spatial design, and embodied practice. SHARC invites artists to develop a healthy distinction between the self they have and the spirit or soul that they are, so they may create vacuums in spacetime where people can explore meaning, fulfillment and connection.

Worked with national and international acts like The Child of LOV, Cameron McVey, Illnoledge, Alain Clark and Khadijia El Kharraz-Alami, among others.

Stillness is not an aesthetic in his work. It is the medium. Stillness First.

Lucas Benjamin (DJ for the after W.A.V.E)

Lucas Benjamin is an Amsterdam-based DJ, promoter and true musicologist. He’s been traveling across the globe for the past 20 years, first competing in dance battles and then as a DJ. Lucas started his own record label in 2017 called Wicked Wax, co-founded a music platform named Steppin’ Into Tomorrow, is part of the infamous Ghetto Funk Collective, and organized plenty of club nights, live concerts, documentary screenings & gives music lectures and DJ classes. In short, a person living music in its totality.

More about Chapter 2: W.A.V.E — Riding the Wave

Riding the Wave is immersion. Where “Floating On The Wave” invited stillness, this chapter enters motion as response, as rhythm, as lived time. Participants are invited to feel how vibration organizes experience from within, how the body begins to mark, stretch, and become time itself. Here, the body is centered as a vessel and spaceship. A fleshy, messy, mysterious architecture through which frequency is generated, shaped, and received.
Rhythm becomes a way of navigating, creating the wave and the frequency band through which reality is sensed and made. Sound and body meet in an intimate exchange, a continuous dialogue between the tactile and the ethereal, where each movement gives form to the invisible.
This second part, ‘Riding the Wave’ explores the balance between control and surrender, revealing both the limits and freedoms of inhabiting the body as an instrument. It asks: what happens when we not only follow rhythm, but become the shifting currents dancing in the endless oscillation between matter and vibration?

Images In Action

Felix Meritis, Thursday, May 28 at 07:30 PM GMT+2

An evening of film and poetry on witnessing Palestine

How to bear witness to a world that burns before our eyes? Explore with us as we move between screen and street, between images and words, through film and poetry that emerged from the political struggle in solidarity with Palestine, here in Amsterdam.

Student protests have played an important role in making anti-colonial solidarity and resistance visible. The constant flow of images on social media fueled mobilization, as well as exhaustion. Join us as we watch Class Outside (Aylin Kuryel, Deniz Buga, Fırat Yücel, 2026) and Happiness (Fırat Yücel, 2025). Two films that follow how the city and the screen are inhabited, contested, and reclaimed by students who refused. And how bearing witness transforms the way we look at the world and relate to one another. You can check the trailers below.

Alongside the films, Çağlar Köseoğlu will share poems from his manuscript our love is terroristic, written for the end of this world. The screening and reading will be followed by a conversation with the artists, moderated by Koray Comert.

Films

Happiness (dir: Fırat Yücel, 18 min, 2025) unfolds as a desktop documentary, tracing the experience of living through livestreamed genocide in Palestine, digital overload, and political unrest. Moving across browser windows, messages, and fragments of everyday life, the film reflects on how screens become sites of both exhaustion and mobilization.

Class Outside (dir: Aylin Kuryel, Deniz Buga, Fırat Yücel, 30 min, 2026) shifts the focus to the street. Emerging from the student encampments and protest movements in Amsterdam, the film takes the form of a collective video diary shaped by a broad network of participants. It explores how images are produced within struggle, how they circulate, and how they sustain forms of collective attention and action.

Line-up

Karim Flores Afifi

For this weeks #Aarollreview, we step into the world of Karim Flores Afifi – DJ, presenter, creative consultant, and someone whose work exists at the intersection of culture, music, and collective experience. Egyptian and Dominican by heritage, he uses curiosity and connection as his driving force, shaping conversations that resonate beyond the surface.

Karim’s career moves through creative roles at Daily Paper and Complex—where he led on creative direction—before landing as event manager at Soho House Amsterdam. Beyond that, Karim channels his energy into music and storytelling—whether through his editorial contributions at @whatsculture or behind the decks as @djbabachulo. The name itself is a nod to his roots—’Baba’ paying homage to his Egyptian side, ‘Chulo’ to Dominican slang. Through his sets, he blends the sounds of the Afro-Caribbean diaspora, turning each performance into a moment of both self-exploration and expression.

Juliana Martina

Born and raised in Curaçao with Colombian roots, Juliana Martina creates music shaped by the cultures and sounds she grew up with. Her work moves between the Caribbean and Latin America, inspired by questions of identity, belonging, and home — what feels familiar, and what home can sound like.

She graduated cum laude from Codarts Rotterdam, where she studied Latin American and Caribbean music. Since then, Juliana has continued to explore and honor her background through music, writing in both Spanish and Papiamentu.

Over the years, she has performed at venues and festivals across the Netherlands, including Muziekgebouw aan ’t IJ, Amersfoort Jazz Festival, and Dias Latinos.

Daniela Montoya Jerez
Daniela Montoya Jerez is a born and raised Colombian poet, spoken word artist and teacher who has lived in the Netherlands for almost 8 years. Her texts and performances reflect on her deep connection with life, stories and words, and explore the nuances of identity and emotional duality in her double life between Colombia and the Netherlands.

Jorge Suarez

Jorge Suarez is a dance teacher, performer & choreographer. Born in Cali, internationally known as the Capital of Salsa, Jorge Suarez grew up surrounded by music, rhythm, and dance. His first connection to movement began in early childhood, sitting on his mother’s lap while she sang and guided his hands and body to the music — a very common and deeply rooted tradition in Colombia and throughout Latin America.

For more than 30 years, Jorge Suarez has dedicated his life to teaching, performing, and choreographing Latin and Afro-Latin dance traditions. Through his classes, performances, and cultural projects, he continues to share the joy, energy, and deep cultural roots of salsa and Latin dance — a passion that remains the greatest love of his life.

after afterlives: film screening and talk programme

W139, Wednesday, May 27 at 08:00 PM GMT+2

What does the ground unleash when it is denied keeping what it holds? How does soil get implicated in the carrying of catastrophe? And how does continuous excavation for artefacts reveal an obsession to erase history in order to create a new one? Against this erasure, how have material knowledges of burning, plastering, and burying offered different approaches to the ground—one where land and flesh are bound together in a rhythm of constant transformation? These are some of the questions we’ll be engaging with during this program, which will expand on the works of Areej Ashhab and Ola Hassanain, in the flour, water, soil exhibition, and bring in the work of Dina Mimi, to open up a conversation about the artefact as witness, the erasure of history through excavation, the objects and topologies of repair, and the relationship of people to their material environments. 

Areej will be sharing excerpts from her film Lime Through the Elements, and connecting them to her new installation, The Ground Keeps What it Holds, commissioned for this exhibition.  The work engages ancient burial practices in Palestine and the aftermath of their settler-colonial excavation. Through field research, experimentation, and collective labor, the film revisits the lost practice of lime making in Palestine and its elemental journey back to limestone as a reflection on return—what survives erasure and elimination.

We will also be screening Dina Mimi’s short film The Eyes That Never See, which narrates the story of Ram(z)i, a lonely working class man who died twice. Ram(z)i was renamed as soon as his first body died, to die again in Jerusalem, under the dusty ground while digging for artefacts from a 6,000 year-old ancient city. Just like in Areej’s work, Dina’s film exposes the obsessions of a settler state that continuously excavates, digging deep into the ground, to find artefacts in order to create new histories.  

Ola will present her spatial installation for the exhibition, Water Collection Points, and contextualise it within her ongoing project Tell The Water What The Clay Kept Secret. The work uses water collection points across the exhibition space to make visible the efforts to repair the environment that emerge at the onset of catastrophes. Framed as a site for the ‘ecology of repair’, Ola examines this collective effort to deal with crisis by highlighting roles within communities—especially those living near water—where watching and listening emerge as spatial practices shaped by environmental and political rupture. 

The films and talks will be followed by a conversation between Ola, Dina, and Areej, moderated by Margarita Osipian—interweaving their individual works and the stories that unfold through them.

Ticket: €7,50Student and solidarity ticket: €5

Buy your tickets via Eventbrite.

Areej Ashhab is an artist and researcher whose work addresses material heritage loss, more-than-human ecologies, and land politics. Areej’s practice spans material experimentation, writing, and film, and often unfolds collectively through walks, workshops, and shared meals. She is the co-founder of Al-Block, documenting lost narratives of the Palestinian landscape through collective walking, and Al-Wah’at, a translocal collective countering anthropocentric and colonial narratives around arid lands and futures. In her recent project A Hand of Fire and Stone, she traced abandoned lime pits in Palestine, built a lime kiln prototype in Bethlehem, and activated this lost architecture through fire, songs, and meals; following the elemental cycle of lime from stone, to paste, and back to stone.

Ola Hassanain is an artist whose work moves through architecture, film, and spatial strategies to reflect on how power becomes visible—and felt—through built environments. Her practice engages with places shaped by climate instability, postcolonial legacies, and displacement, thinking through the politics of inhabiting and how ecological and social systems shape one another across time. As she notes, “observation summons a form of power”.

Dina Mimi is an artist working in experimental film and moving image, exploring how, and when, bodies become sites of resistance. Often using found footage to explore themes including smuggling and tactics of movement, her work adopts non-linear forms of narration. She approaches editing as an open and exploratory process, experimenting with the opacity of footage—images that are in the act of vanishing.

YOGA WITH KASHA

De Ceuvel, Saturday, June 13 at 10:00 AM GMT+2

VINYASA
vi- (‘in a special way’) -nyasa (‘to place’)

Join us to practice yoga in a peaceful setting tucked amongst the reeds and the trees where our studio is nestled. Views out to the water front and surrounding nature create a magical environment and unique experience for this intimate yoga class.

Each lesson you will journey through mediation, breath, somatic movement and vinyasa. Kasha’s teaching style involves creative sequencing and imaginative transitions that guide the body to move seamlessly through forms while maintaining your flow. You’re invited to move in ways that feel good for you with room for choice, curiosity and playfulness. A themed narrative is interwoven through each class to create intentionality to your practice and offer points of contemplation beyond the mat. Handmade textile yoga props and carefully curated playlists dress the studio set up with an extra touch of heart and soul. Class concludes always with a generous Savasana, so you leave the space with your practice integrated and your body and mind nourished. All bodies, backgrounds and experience levels are invited.

We believe Yoga should be accessible to all which is why we offer classes to the community on a sliding scale. You can pay by QR code or cash at the studio using the guidelines below.

ABOUT KASHa

“Yoga to me is a journey back to myself. Whether that’s grabbing a quick moment at the dawn of a busy day or immersing myself in a month long training. I’m forever in awe of this practice’s ability, to shift my emotional state whilst offering new learnings and discoveries about myself. I teach yoga in the hope that I can facilitate a safe and grounding space where students can pause from the collision of modern day life and find connection to themselves.

I come from a clothing design background and long resisted the path of teaching yoga as I felt it didn’t align with my ‘creative’ identity. Then, whilst in the midst of grief I had an eureka (!) moment on my mat that ushered me on my teaching journey. I was joyfully surprised at how artistic the process of teaching yoga could be, and simply transferred my design formulas to building and planning classes. Creativity is at the heart of my teaching. My classes are imaginative and playful, focusing on connection to the breath and self inquiry. “

'Lewis takes up a debate with several Black feminists who have, at various times, questioned the idea of family abolition, whose central argument has been that, very often, Black families have been sites of resistance against racism. Similarly, we could point to many experiences of class struggle in which sectors of working families have played a key role against the attacks of capital: supporting strikes, establishing relations of solidarity between factories and neighborhoods, staging rent strikes, maintaining soup kitchens, creating movements in defense of public services, and many other forms of resistance. The tradition of “women’s commissions” in strikes, for example, has allowed the working class to articulate fighting forces far beyond the workplace.

'To this criticism Lewis responds that, even so, we should not cease working for the abolition of the family, since we would not need its “protective shield” if we managed to build a society without racism. The argument contains a grain of truth, but it stops halfway. It fails to contemplate the role that the family relations within sectors of the working class and oppressed can play in moments of heightened class struggle. On another level, it doesn’t account for the fact that capitalism, while it needs such a “social cell” for its own reproduction, constantly undermines working families’ very conditions of existence. Marx and Engels remarked on this in the mid-19th century, pointing to the length of the working day, the lack of decent housing, and the general precariousness of working class life.'
