18th FLYING BROOM INTERNATIONAL WOMEN’S FILM FESTIVAL

CALL FOR CARTOON EXHIBITION OF GENDER EQUALITY

"Laughing" is one of the most significant features of humankind that distinguishes it from other species. In a world where being treated like a saint for being quiet is quite common and saying "…don’t laugh like a woman!" is a swearing, it is tried to make people forget that humour is actually the result of a deep thought. Yet, how much we laugh defines how "human" we are. Our hearts stay warm as we laugh and laughing to ourselves is the best cure for arrogance. That is why laughter and humour are considered to be threatening and get banned by religions and governments throughout history. Humour is an essential medium that points out details, what is unorthodox to nature’s course and illustrates bitter reality by covering it with sugar.

Humour, as an expression of critical thought, struggling, resisting and caricature matching up with this is another branch of art that leads us to think about our social roles.

Through the exhibition it is aimed to raise awareness on gender equality, get people discuss on this topic again, have a look at women issue, which is an essential part of political, economic and social life, by viewpoint of humour.
