Bubbling Baby

It was one night at Club Voltage, in The Hague, Netherlands, that DJ Moortje — born on the island of Curaçao — invented bubbling, after accidentally setting a dancehall LP spinning at the wrong speed. In that instant, the soundtrack — and perhaps even a way of being — of the Caribbean diaspora so present in that Central European country was born. Sharine Rijsenburg’s film traces the genre’s origins while exploring its vibrant contemporary scene, so powerfully shaped by feminist energy.

Funk U All

Born in the favela, it has spilled into major avenues and taken over every corner — street parties, underground dances, and upscale nightclubs alike. Funk, more specifically funk putaria, is now Brazil’s most popular music genre, proudly raising its anti-prudish flag and foregrounding the body — particularly the female body — as a site of resistance, desire, and self-assertion. Funk U All, the new film by Ana Rieper (I’ll Raffle Off My Heart, IndieLisboa 2012), brings funk to the center of sex, or sex to the center of funk.
