Heteronormative love kills. Love relationships perceived and lived in terms of heteronormativity require the ultimate restriction of one's freedom of living her/his life without restraints, one's freedom of true loving. Jealousy and possessiveness, emotional pressure and blackmail, dictating one's feelings and the way they should be expressed, are instances met almost all the time in monogamous relationships and they are restraining the individual's sphere of enjoying other kinds of relationships – of friendship, love, mutuality and so on – others then the one and only shared with the other person. Very often this love you are sharing with the opposite gender is nourishing and is brutally imposing beauty standards imprisoning the other one in sexist stereotypes.

LoveKills collective is trying to organize the third edition of the festival. It is our strong desire to continue this festival, as we consider it to be very important for our struggle to make a difference especially in the romanian context, to live up to our anarcha-feminist ideas in a fundamentalist/ orthodox/ patriarchal society and even in a completely ignorant+sexist "scene". We are welcoming every individual/ collective involved/ interested in anarcha-feminism to take part in our festival, to support and help us. The festival will be taking place in Timisoara (West of Romania) during the last week-end of september 26th-27th. Anyone who is interested in presenting a workshop/lecture/documentary/exhibition, in performing or playing or anything else please contact us.

This spring (April) the third film festival against racism and xenophobia will be organized in Saint Petersburg, Russia.
Right now we are looking for movies and short movies that have something to do with the topic (racism, xenophobia, genocide etc. ) The movies have to be made not earlier than in 2005, the country and language, as well as duration of the film, do not matter.
