Philoxenia literally means love of strangers; it means eagerness to show hospitality. It was a sacred institution in ancient Greece protected by Zeus himself. Foreign guests were considered honoured and respected people. This year The Athens Porn Film Festival (8-11 May) invites "foreign guests" from Amsterdam, PFFA, with a selection of films produced in the Netherlands, and takes a chance to learn more about the current legal situation in De Wallen and its culture.

Deconstructing the binarisms between nature-technology, science-spirituality, male-female, we zoom out and into the colonial history between Europe and Latin America and link it to the colonial approach medicine has had on female-assigned bodies. Inspired by Hermaphroditus, a being embodying male and female in their body, we follow threads of Greek mythology to discover how these archetypes still impact our current belief systems, while uncovering the deeply gendered but also queer aspects of these stories.
