Screening as part of the Queerious season from Birds’ Eye View.
Opening with a video-recorded confession from secretary Polly, this comedy tells of her voyeuristic fascination for her new boss, the ambitious Gabrielle, owner of an art gallery. The two women are like night and day – the new temp is absent-minded and innocent, with spiky orange hair and the curator is bourgeois and polished with a gift for gab. Yet a strong connection builds through their shared love of art, curiosity and appetite for love.
Directed by Patricia Rozema (Mouthpiece, 2018), a significant player in the Toronto New Wave, I’ve Heard the Mermaids Singing is a playful, humorous and complex look at the many different kinds of desire and admiration between women.
This screening will be accompanied by Wavelengths by Pratibha Parmar.
GFT, 12 Rose Street, Glasgow G3 6RB
