SUMMARY:We Are Eternal
DESCRIPTION:Listen to this Event Page\n  \nLove takes many shapes. In this selection of shorts from Brazil\, different kinds of love move through distinct relationships. Not eternal as in forever unchanged\, but constantly evolving: a throuple that keeps choosing each other as illness rewrites what they remember. Travesti friends who sit together inside grief rather than apart from it. Lovers locked out of their own home\, borrowing warmth from strangers until morning. A father and estranged son bound by an ache neither can name. A deaf man and a stranger\, something quiet beginning\, while an old friendship watches close by. \nThese films hold each of these bonds as a kind of eternity\, not because it lasts unchanged\, but because it keeps being shaped and reshaped. Every connection here is built\, lost\, and often but not always built again. Eternity is not permanence\, but persistence. Love that survives by being chosen\, over and over again. \nCurated by Indigo Korres and Ricky Mastro. Presented in partnership with Mostra Queer Brasil. \n  \nClick here to book your ticket for this event. \nTickets are on a pay what you can sliding scale of FREE\, £4\, £8\, £12\, £16\, or £20\, in order to make SQIFF more accessible to those on a low income.

SUMMARY:Scottish Shorts 2
DESCRIPTION:Listen to this Event Page\n  \nScottish Shorts 2 moves across Edinburgh summers\, dinner tables\, supermarket bins\, political stages and the search for beauty in a new home.  \nThese films look at what it means to be shut out\, misunderstood or left behind\, but also at the strange and inventive ways people make space for themselves. Relationships begin to slip\, conversations become inaccessible\, outrage turns into spectacle and discarded food becomes the centre of a new ritual.  \nMoving between fiction\, documentary and experiment\, the programme finds tenderness\, humour and resistance in unexpected places\, asking what remains when the world fails to make room for you.  \nThe screening will be followed by a Q&A with local filmmakers. All films in this screening and ‘Scottish Shorts 1’ are in with a chance to win the title of Best Scottish Short.
