CCA Box Office are operating a waiting list for sold out events – please contact them directly or go to their website to be added to this!** \nCurated by Charlie Little\, a queer\, deafblind film access consultant and curator\, ‘Signs for the Future’ is a collection of short films interwoven with intersections of identity\, our natural world and elements\, and climate justice issues. These films capture Deaf and disabled perspectives and intersectional identity\, seeking to spark conversations about collective\, intertwined struggles and how our climate plays a role in our unity.  \nThis special showcase will also feature the short film Bee’s Journey\, which was produced by emerging Deaf filmmakers and created in response to the Scottish Sensory Centre’s ‘Rewilding BSL’ project. This project led to the creation of over 400 British Sign Language signs for climate and environment-related terms\, making climate justice action and environmental discussions more accessible for BSL users.  \nBee’s Journey came to life during a filmmaking workshop\, ‘Filming Our World: Rewilding BSL & Queer Ecologies\,’ facilitated by Take One Action Film Festivals\, SQIFF\, and Edinburgh Deaf Festival this summer. The workshop presentations were led by Dr. Audrey Cameron\, Will Clark\, and Klarissa Webster. \nCurated by Charlie Little. \n  \nTickets are on a pay what you can sliding scale of FREE\, £2\, £4\, £6\, £8\, £10\, or £12.
