who we are

 

BADhOLE Video is a cultural association.
The spelling looks English, but we say it without the “h” to make it sound like a local Piedmontese word, pronounced approximately Bah-dawl-eh, meaning something like “silly, foolish women”.

 

Our five WH-words

WHO
We started out as film-makers in 2001 and became an Association in 2010. We are a group of five resistant, insistent, militant women who can become 500 if need be.

WHAT
We make “little” films which give us great satisfaction. We talk about rights, women, work, discrimination and generally anything and everything we feel strongly about. We try to do it with irony because we believe this to be the most high-powered, fire-powered and surprise-powered weapon. Our short films have been seen all over the world and have won various national and international awards.

WHERE
We think global and act local, in Turin, Italy.

WHEN
Every time the need and the urge to say something becomes more powerful and more overpowering than our normal occupations.

WHY
Because this is the way we have chosen to share and tell; our highly personal way of seeing and believing in Politics.
