There are still 72 countries in which homosexuality is outlawed, sometimes even punished by the death penalty. The two dancers on the glamorous catwalk of GlitterGods/Stigma are balancing between two realities: the one of acceptance and the one of discrimination. Moving front- and backwards they are confronted with the friction between opposing experiences: freedom and oppression, pride and shame, love and hate. Through all these responses, they are trying to find their own reality, and expose their quest for autonomy and share their way to shine, their strengths and their fragilities.
GlitterGods/Stigma is a call for further progress and acceptance, an ode to love and a big thank you to all LGBTQI+ figures that have fought for equal rights.
