Pain is not an instrument. Not a function. Not a warning.
It is a language – the articulation of flesh.
Not a metaphor, but a force of its own.
A crossing beyond the comfort zone – into the place where perception becomes body.

On September 20, within the walls of aqb, we invite you to a site-specific screening of The Gift of Pain.

This evening is not about stories, but about passages.
Not illustration, but experiment: how pain becomes consciousness, how it unfolds through the body’s language, and how it confronts everything from which language withdraws.

Program:
• Film screening – The Gift of Pain
• Q&A with the creators
• Playful experiments at the edge of our comfort zones
• Special cocktails and music – so we can keep buzzing together after the screening

Tickets:
• Standard: 2,000 HUF
• Supporter: 5,000 HUF

The film is non-text-based; the few spoken passages are subtitled in English.
