28. Festival alternativnog kazališnog izričaja – FAKI
26. svibnja – 1. lipnja 2025., Zagreb, Hrvatska
Festival alternativnog kazališnog izričaja – FAKI, koji se održava od 26. svibnja do 1. lipnja 2025. u Zagrebu, ove godine ulazi u svoje 28. izdanje pod temom Briga je otpor. U vremenu u kojem društvo sve češće zanemaruje odgovornost za druge, FAKI otvara prostor za promišljanje brige kao čina solidarnosti, otpornosti i zajedničkog učenja.
Kroz niz besplatnih radionica, predstava, performansa i razgovora, umjetnici i umjetnice iz cijelog svijeta propituju kako društvene, političke i kulturne sile oblikuju naše poimanje brige – od intimnih odnosa do borbi za ljudska prava, ekološku pravdu i dostojanstvo zajednica.
Program se odvija na više zagrebačkih lokacija (Filmski studio Medika, Galerija Siva, Infoshop Pippilotta, Cirkobalkana šator, mala dvorana Pogon Jedinstvo, Scena Ribnjak, Studio-galerija Klet), a u središtu festivala stoje izvedbe koje spajaju osobno i kolektivno iskustvo, umjetničko istraživanje i političku svijest.
FAKI je projekt Autonomnog kulturnog centra Attack, nastao 1998. kao odgovor na dominaciju elitizma i komercijalizacije u institucionalnoj kulturi, s ciljem podrške neovisnim, avangardnim i eksperimentalnim izvedbenim praksama. Danas, više nego ikad, poziva na preispitivanje odnosa prema sebi, drugima i društvu u kojem živimo.
Ulaz na sva festivalska događanja je slobodan.

28th Festival of Alternative Theatrical Expression – FAKI
May 26 – June 1, 2025, Zagreb, Croatia
Festival of Alternative Theatrical Expression (FAKI) returns for its 28th edition from May 26 to June 1, 2025, in Zagreb, Croatia, under the theme To care is to resist. In a world where social responsibility is increasingly neglected, FAKI invites audiences and artists to explore care as an act of solidarity, resilience, and collective learning.
Through a series of free workshops, performances, exhibitions, and discussions, artists from around the globe will examine how social, political and cultural forces shape our understanding of care – from intimate relationships to struggles for human rights, environmental justice and community dignity.
The festival will take place across multiple locations in Zagreb (Filmski studio Medika, Infoshop Pippilotta, Siva Gallery, Cirkobalkana Tent, Pogon Jedinstvo, Scena Ribnjak and Studio-Gallery Klet), centering performances that weave together personal and collective experience, artistic research and political awareness.
Founded in 1998 by the Autonomous Cultural Center Attack as a response to the elitism and commercialization of institutional culture, FAKI has since become a vital platform for independent, avant-garde, and experimental performance practices. Today, it continues to challenge the ways we relate to ourselves, each other, and the world we share.
All festival events are free and open to the public.
