When people resist social norms and build relationships through difference, love, care, violence or fleeting attraction, it opens spaces for other stories. A long song that ancestors sang in factories. A brief encounter in the woods. Hands behind back, fists raised. Love, violence, care, attraction – all interwoven in networks, bonds, conflicts: resistance is blooming, and someone has to show it. (IF)
