Monika Treut returns to the protagonists of her film Gendernauts from the year 1999. Although now older, the artists, academics and transactivists are no less lively, clever, gentle and wise. Monika Treut asks them what has changed in their lives but also what issues they continue to struggle with. This poignant portrait writes queer history but is by no means a form of closure. The socio-political situation has changed. As a centre of queer politics, San Francisco no longer attracts everyone. Rent prices have increased so much that only activists with a good income can afford to live here. The community that was once at home here has also changed over the years. The protagonists of Monika Treut’s film talk about their everyday lives today, about art, the academic world but also about activism.
Genderation is a journey through time, a reunion with familiar characters and a road movie without closure. A cross-generational conversation is also made possible through the medium of film.

In collaboration with Museum Ostwall within the programme Art on the MOve.
