Who is Claudette? This documentary sets out to find an answer. The intersexual Claude/tte grew up both girl and boy in northern Africa. As a teenager, the family returned to Switzerland, where Claude decided to live as a man, with wife and a job as an architect. When this life became too restricting, Claudette took over – a prostitute, and proud of her profession.

Lisa Fannen is visiting Hamburg. She will present her video “Dialogue”.
We will also be showing a programme of dance and performance videos from the bildwechsel archives.
DIALOGUE (approx. 15 mins)
Edited sound and improvised movement as response to/ critique of new age
ideology.
…. these particular prayers we’re offered…..
Dialogue was performed as a solo in a few places. A solo performance in
London April 2012 experimented with trying to open out into shared
conversation and was followed by a second evening of performance which
involved a group improvised dance/movement response to the sound. This
film is a record of that collective performance.
Sound Lisa Fannen.
Improvised movement Natasha Lowe Swingler, Jiska Morgenthal, Katsura
Isobe and Jan Lee.

Historically, no other occupation has stirred as much controversy as prostitution.
The fascination it awakens has been described for centuries in countless ways, with and without sympathy.
Even the video clip, one of the youngest media in the realm of popular culture, has been a canvas for the idealized representation of “the world’s oldest profession”.
Conceived in the last three decades, the music videos in this anthology prove that prostitutes haven’t lost their transgressive aura.
