Kaboom x Omroep Zwart: Unlearning Motherhood

Kaboom 2024: Kaboom x Omroep Zwart: Unlearning Motherhood

Being or becoming a mother should come with loads of medals, don't you think?

poster Kaboom Animation Festival 2024

The mental and physcial load of motherhood is a challenge that would put to shame even the greatest male superhero. Through a panel talk intertwined with a curated short film programme, Kaboom and Omroep Zwart try to offer a nuanced exploration of the maternal experience and its multifaceted visualization in animation, a medium that is perhaps best able to grasp the physciality of femininity.

Moderated by Juliana Erazo.

Juliana is a Colombian filmmaker based in The Netherlands, graduated from the MA Animation at St. Joost. Currently she is working on her next animated documentary about unconventional motherhood titled "Unlearning Motherhood", which has earned a realization fund from The Film Fonds and a Stimuleringsfonds grant and is produced by Richard Valk.

In collaboration with Omroep Zwart

The films shown in this programme are either spoken or subtitled in English.

Kaboom 2024

Home sweet home. Zoals het klokje thuis tikt, tikt het nergens. Home is where the heart is. There’s no place like home. What does home mean to you? Wat if it’s no longer a place, but an object, a person, a memory, a taste, a language, a smell or an image?
