Due to health reasons Lého Galibert-Laîné unfortunately cannot come to the the festival in person. Instead of La Grande Vacance, a screening of Affirmations are Not as Powerful as Belief will take place.

...

This lecture will present fragments from an ongoing artistic research project, La Grande Vacance. A non-binary film - part essay film and part speculative fiction - the project explores images of exhaustion and exhaustion through images. Starting from a streaming practice that sees individuals film themselves sleeping to monetize their downtime, the film offers a critical and poetic reflection on the contemporary entanglements between fatigue, (self-)exploitation, and online screen practices.

The lecture will be followed by a conversation between Lého Galibert-Laîné and Alice Lenay.
