Lion Ceccah is a hybrid of performance and pop music, where mysticism meets the established rules of the stage… only to break them. His concept of “Drobė” was born as a rebellion against the sterile image of popularity, inviting the viewer to become not only an observer but also a creator. In his performances, Lion creates a theatrical ritual that intertwines original songs, queer aesthetics, and vivid visual codes. It is a space where pop art irony merges with intimate liberation, and every movement and sound becomes a manifesto against boundaries and norms.
The Adventure of Iron Pussy
„The Adventure of Iron Pussy“ (Thailand, 2003) is Apichatpong Weerasethakul and Michael Shaowanasa’s campy homage to the Thai action films and musical melodramas of the 1970s. Crime-busting heroine, a former go-go boy, Iron Pussy decides to take a commission from a Thai government, who usually deems her indecent for her publicly supporting the sex industry. But nobody cannot deny her ability to scrap the crimes with beauty. An undercover operation takes her to a remote mansion where she not only discovers illegal activities, but also her past, and her first love.
