In addition to the series, the project includes audience engagements both online and in-person. These events will create a platform for exchanging ideas and views, extending the dialogue initiated in the series. KulturDocs aims to challenge entrenched opinions and stereotypes by showcasing the vibrant and thriving Jewish art scene in Poland.

This film follows Betty Q, a pioneering Polish Jewish burlesque artist, as she navigates the intersection of identity, art, and activism. It delves into her complex relationship with her Jewish heritage, shaped by her mother’s decision to distance herself from their shared roots.

Through striking performances and personal reflections, Betty reclaims and redefines Jewishness, weaving it into her work as an artist and activist. Recognized for bringing burlesque to Poland, she uses the medium to challenge stereotypes and celebrate resilience. The film captures her journey of self-discovery and the transformative power of art to honor tradition while forging a bold new path.

This film follows two young Jewish queer artists, Marcella Poroshanka, a film and video artist, and Ezra Wojakowski, a visual artist, as they use their art to explore self-discovery and challenge traditional views of Jewish identity in Poland. Through their creative practices, they redefine what it means to be both Jewish and queer, offering a fresh perspective on identity in contemporary Polish society. Their work not only reflects their personal journeys but also provides a glimpse into the experiences of a new generation of Polish Jews who are shaping their own paths as queer, trans, and Jewish artists in a world that often marginalizes them.
