Warime is a traditional ceremony that serves as a way for the community to connect with the spiritual world and seek guidance from their ancestors. During the ritual, participants gather around a sacred fire and perform dances, songs, and chants to invoke the spirits. Offerings such as food, drinks, and tobacco are presented to the spirits as a sign of respect and gratitude. Through Warime, the Wojtüja people believe they can communicate with their ancestors and receive blessings and protection for the community. It is a deeply spiritual and meaningful ceremony that highlights the strong connection between the Wojtüja people and the natural world. Join us as we witness the beauty and significance of Warime and gain a deeper understanding of the rich cultural traditions of the indigenous peoples of the Venezuelan Amazon.

The climate is changing, and the Indigenous peoples of the Xingu Indigenous Park, in Mato Grosso, Brazil, are reading the signs everywhere. Trees no longer bloom when they should, fires spread through the forest, the cicadas that once announced the rains have fallen silent, and crops spoil before they ripen. The swallows that used to herald the rainy season no longer appear in the sky. Surrounded by decades of deforestation for soy, corn and cattle, the Xingu peoples look at these devastating changes and wonder what kind of future awaits their grandchildren.

Queens is an intergenerational documentary told entirely through the voices of drag performers. At its centre is legendary entertainer Doug Lucas, who reflects on the early days of drag as camp comedy, its marginalisation within the queer community and the pivotal role drag queens played during the AIDS crisis. Intercut with Doug’s memories and contemporaneous archival news footage are vibrant performances and candid reflections from a new generation of drag artists. In the present day, drag becomes a form of transformation, armour and freedom: a space to explore gender, authenticity and fantasy on one’s own terms. Juxtaposing past and present, Queens reveals drag as both resistance and celebration, as well as a living legacy of creativity and community.
