After Nextfest’s success, we repeat the performative reading of Rebeka Kupihár’s sensitive, insightful and political poems from her debut book of poetry To The God of Heteros. The reading is performed by graduates of the Freeszfe film acting class, who will be joined by their mentors, the actresses Natasa Stork and Orsolya Török-Illyés for this occasion. 

The focal point of Rebeka Kupihár's first volume is self-identical, same-sex love, with all its questions, joys and dangers. Cycle by cycle, the volume explores the social, psychological, physical and transcendent aspects of otherness, sometimes with poignant, sometimes with disturbing honesty.
Different characters give voice to the quiet intimacy of her poems. After the performative reading, Luca Borsos invites us to a collective somatic check-in to process what we have heard, as “we are bodies in space, bodies in society. Feeling, living, experiential bodies.”

Rebeka Kupihár (Eger, 1999) is a poet and psychologist. Her first volume of poetry, A heterók istenéhez (To the God of Heteros), was published in 2024 by Magvető Publishers. She was awarded Petri Prize in 2023 and received Péter Horváth Scholarship in 2024.

The Freeszfe Film Acting Program 2023/24 is a theoretical and practical training adapted to the needs of today. It approaches the craft of acting from a camera-centred approach as opposed to traditional, stage-oriented methods. Training concept: Orsolya Török-Illyés.
Class instructors: Kristóf Becsey, Natasa Stork, Gábor Szilágyi, Orsolya Török-Illyés.
