Queeriosities from the Archive at GFT
Wednesday 30 November, 2022, 8.40 p.m.
Get curious and rediscover tantalising tales from the archives. With this curated programme of short films, say goodbye to what is expected of you when it comes to intimacy, partnership and sexuality. Whether forgotten or rarely screened, explore a multitude of desires and depictions of queerness reflective of the times, and of an always existing community.
A continuation of Birds’ Eye View’s previous touring programme Queerious which explored desire on screen from the 1980s to the present day, this selection digs deep in to archives across the UK and beyond, bringing stories of sexual awakenings and realisations, love and lust through a feminist lens from 1932 to now. Freed from the restrictions of mainstream filmmaking, this collection of hidden gems from the archives is a celebration of desires which invites us to question, learn and enjoy our sexual selves.
With an extended introduction from Birds Eye View’s Glasgow and Edinburgh Impact Producer, Xuanlin Tham.
