Concert & Film Screening Evening
The fifth day of Creative Music Lab III – presents a powerful interdisciplinary evening that brings together live performance and cinematic reflection.
The program opens with a concert by Kamilya Jubran & Werner Hasler, whose collaboration merges voice, trumpet, and live electronics into an immersive sonic dialogue between Arabic poetic tradition and contemporary experimental sound. Their performance moves between improvisation and composition, creating a deeply atmospheric and intimate musical experience.
(10-minute break)
The evening continues with the screening of the film The Visual Feminist Manifesto (Manifesto), directed by Farida Baqi. The film offers a visual and conceptual exploration of feminist perspectives, using experimental imagery and narrative forms to question identity, representation, and social structures.
Together, the program creates a layered artistic experience where music and film intersect, opening a dialogue on voice, body, and visual expression within contemporary feminist discourse.

Kamilya Jubran & Werner Hasler
The ongoing collaboration between Kamilya Jubran and Swiss trumpeter and electronic musician Werner Hasler is one of her most significant recent artistic projects, focusing on the intersection of voice, text, trumpet, and live electronics.
Their work explores a highly refined sonic dialogue where Jubran’s expressive vocal language and Arabic poetic traditions meet Hasler’s experimental soundscapes and electroacoustic processing. Together, they create immersive live performances that blur the boundaries between composition and improvisation, acoustic and electronic sound.
Recent collaborations have been presented in international venues and festivals across Europe and beyond, continuing to develop a distinctive artistic language that is intimate, abstract, and deeply contemporary—rooted in memory, voice, and sonic experimentation

Synopsis
Like all things in the vastness of the universe, women are a creation. But what does it mean and feel like to be a woman – when understood from a woman’s experience and perspective?
We follow the journey of a woman in different stages, from her creation, over childhood, adolescence and into early adulthood. We experience and see with her how she is shaped and defined by the changes in her mind and her body, and as well by how her surroundings in words and deeds, exactly like a mold, are shaping or trying to shape her.
It is a journey of hope, aspiration, and struggle to find one’s own dignity, purpose, and joy in becoming a person in full – that is: a woman true to herself, with agency, and with strong solidarity towards other women – her sisters in life.
