Press and Quotes
"Chatting to punk faggots in Berlin, capturing live acts in Copenhagen, quizzing the Pornflakes art collective in Italy, stopping off in Poland, Serbia and well, Leeds – there’s a whole European-wide network of dirty queers, and Travel Queeries has been on the road recording their stories."

"(Travel Queeries presents a) subjective take on radical queer art, culture, and activism in today's Europe. Interviews, performances, and a great soundtrack prove that 'queer' is not just a cosy umbrella term for all things non-heterosexual, but clearly a political identity."

Quotes about Travel Queeries
(by community members/TQ interviewees)
________________________________________
(In reference to "Travel Queeries: Queeruption Barcelona" Short, 2005)
“I liked Travel Queeries a lot, it was good to see the people and the space… to get the filmmakers view of the scene”
Question: Why do you think documentation of the
International radical queer community is important?
“We don’t want to vanish in history- unseen.”
San- Bremen, Germany
Director of Documentary ‘Step up and be Vocal’
Performer in all-girl-boygroup “Sissy Boyz”: www.sissyboyz.de.vu
--------------------------
“Travel Queeries offers a filmic space of visibility… the film will act as a tool of connection for those (included and excluded from the European Queer Scene)… dispersed as we are throughout the world, we need to imagine, visualize, community when we are alone…. for example the political repression of homosexuality in Poland currently where part of the film is set, and the way the film provides an avenue for understanding these problems.”
