What (the Fuck) is Lesbian Cinema? + The Book of Gabrielle (Glasgow)
October 28, 2017 @ 2:30 pm - 5:30 pm
Free – £10
The Book of Gabrielle is a clever dramedy about an intimate yet platonic relationship that develops between a female graphic artist and an older male erotic novelist. Saul delights in Gabrielle’s description of her past affairs and ongoing relationship with her younger girlfriend, Olivia (Anna Koval), just as Gabrielle likes to explore masculinity through Saul. Does he help Gabrielle find her artistic voice or is Saul finding his? Does she need to break from his patriarchy in order to find herself?
To coincide with the launch of the film, director and star Lisa Gornick presents an accompanying live drawing show What (the Fuck) is Lesbian Cinema? Using pen, paper, and watercolour, Gornick explores where the desires of lesbian film are at right now alongside the politics, money, and passions aroused around it. Lisa will also take part in a Q&A after the film screening.
Also taking place at Edinburgh Filmhouse on Sunday 29th October 2.30pm.
ACCESS: The Lighthouse has level access at the entrance with a lift available to the screening space. Accessible toilets available. English language with English captions. If you would like to attend and require BSL interpretation for the live drawing show, please email info@sqiff.org and we will book this for you.
