Jaripeo at Glasgow Film Festival 2026
1st March (4.15 p.m.) and 2nd March(8.15 p.m.)
Glasgow Film Thetre, 12 Rose Street, G3 6RB
The world of jaripeo – a traditional Mexican-style rodeo, which sees many from the Mexican diaspora return to visit family – might seem like a hypermasculine space where machismo rules supreme.
Efraín Mojica and Rebecca Zweig guide us into another world beneath the bullish surface, revealed in knowing glances and touches filled with queer desire. Mixing verite footage and tactile Super 8, the documentarians focus on queer rancheros who share their memories and experiences and ask how their longing survives in traditional and oppressive spaces such as these, while also questioning the impact migration has on the cultural landscape.
Screening on 1 March will be followed by a Q&A with director Efraín Mojic.
