mixed_me - EinMenschShow -
"What strange delusion forced me to see this absurd role through to the end? I can't explain it to myself. Perhaps this longing for the unknown that is so natural to mankind." From the diary of Alexine/Abel Barbin, intersexual person, published in 1872
An asterisk at the end of nouns. An "I" at the end of LGBT. A third gender, no gender, man and woman at the same time, neither man nor woman. Beyond categorization, intersexual people have long been forced into invisibility. mixed_me is a manifesto of the ambiguity of human nature, telling of the process of building an identity between the urge for normality and the personal pride in being unique. A person in search of his or her position in the world, which always assigns him or her a role that he or she cannot or does not want to occupy. Video, spoken theatre, emotional states and docu-fiction interweave into a many-voiced web - a kaleidoscope of history, medicine, gender studies, activism, poetry and everyday life.
