SUMMARY:Black History Month: Portrait of Jason
DESCRIPTION:Portrait of Jason shows sex worker and entertainer\, Jason Holliday\, recounting his life story for filmmaker Shirley Clarke. \nJason is the sole on-screen presence in the film. He narrates his life story to the camera\, behind which Clarke and her partner at the time\, actor Carl Lee\, provoke and berate Jason with increasing hostility as the film progresses. The film alleges to employ avant-garde and cinéma vérité techniques to reach the tragedy underlying Jason’s performative persona. However\, Portrait of Jason is one of if not the first documentation of black queer experiences and trauma exploited by white ‘gatekeepers’ for the sake of the artist’s cultural and financial capital gains. \nAlthough Portrait of Jason is a landmark film\, there is a need here to discuss the fuzzy problem of ‘visibility’ within the white/capitalist domination of visual culture. Are the lines between exposure and exploitation blurred in Portrait of Jason? \nCurated and hosted by Sequoia Barnes\, an art/design scholar and doctoral candidate at The School of Design with Edinburgh College of Art. Presented as part of Black History Month in partnership with Coalition for Racial Equality and Rights (CRER). \nFree. To book\, please use the button below or call CCA box office on +44 (0)141 352 4900. \n[bra_button text=’Buy Tickets’ url=’https://ccaglasgow.ticketsolve.com/shows/873612019/events/129093020′ target=’_blank’ size=’medium’ style=’rounded’ color=’pink’] \n  \nACCESS \nThis screening has an age recommendation of N/C 15+. \nFilm has English audio with English language subtitles/captions. If you would like to attend this event and require BSL interpretation for the introduction/discussion\, please email access@sqiff.org at least 2 weeks in advance. \nFilm is moderately accessible to English-speaking blind and partially sighted audiences with a lot of visual storytelling but some explanatory dialogue and all English language.

SUMMARY:Vision Portraits

SUMMARY:No Box for Me. An Intersex Story

SUMMARY:Lemebel
DESCRIPTION:Pedro Lemebel’s sharp\, poetic texts and provocative performances make him one of South America’s most significant artists. Under Pinochet’s dictatorship in Chile\, Lemebel expressed things most wouldn’t dare. For the country’s left-wing opposition\, his queerness made him an awkward figure as he exposed their machismo and homophobia. Lemebel embodied an uncomfortable gay identity and fiercely criticised the wish of some queer people to assimilate. Lemebel uses slides and video clips to shape an essay-like memento\, enhanced with intimate interviews\, to portray a tireless fighter who continued to speak out until the end of his life. \nJoanna Reposi Garibaldi will join us for a Q&A after the screening. Kindly sponsored by Scottish Documentary Institute. Part of strand Latinx Legends. Joanna will also be giving a workhop on documentary filmmaking as part of the Festival.

SUMMARY:Cassandro\, the Exotico!
DESCRIPTION:Cassandro is a well-known lucha libre wrestler known for his extravagant gayness and equally spectacular wrestling moves. Shot on 16mm over the course of 5 years\, Marie Losier’s film follows a champion coming to terms with his increasingly ailing body. We bear witness to Cassandro’s scars\, both mental and physical\, his pain contrasting with his flamboyant masks and aerial manoeuvres in the ring. The Mexican legend struggles to deal with past addiction and abuse\, which continue to haunt him. But his joy and strength in creating space for his queer self within conservative cultural traditions make for a fascinating and invigorating watch. \nPresented in partnership with Document Human Rights Film Festival.

SUMMARY:A Girl’s Band
DESCRIPTION:From 80s punk to modern day synth pop\, rocking Argentinian queer women artists are chronicled in A Girl’s Band by bassist turned filmmaker\, Marilina Giménez. Her band YiLet broke up long ago but Giménez still has access to dozens of musicians who are ready to speak their truths about partying on the road\, sexual harassment\, and the recognised truth that any men in ‘girl bands’ ruin the whole vibe. Veteran bands like The She-Devils get the mosh pits going\, while newcomers Chocolate Remix and Miss Bolivia reinvent reggaeton and pop. These women also double as badass activists fighting for safe and legal abortions whilst being determined to make an indelible mark on the stomping girl-led music scene in Argentina. \nIn association with Girls Rock Glasgow with an introduction by Sarah Glass from band The Fnords. \nTickets are priced on a sliding scale £0-£8 depending on what you can afford. To book\, please use the button below or call CCA box office on +44 (0)141 352 4900. \n[bra_button text=’Buy Tickets’ url=’https://ccaglasgow.ticketsolve.com/shows/873611623/events/129089657′ target=’_blank’ size=’medium’ style=’rounded’ color=’pink’] \n  \nACCESS \nThis screening has an age recommendation of N/C 12+. \nFilm has Spanish\, Italian\, and English audio with English language subtitles/captions.

SUMMARY:SQIFF Shorts: Queer Spaces
DESCRIPTION:How does queer visibility transform physical and symbolic space? What roles do specific spaces have in altering the way that we navigate and represent ourselves in public? Why are alternatives to heteronormative space important for our communities? In this collection of shorts\, we explore what ‘home’ and ‘public space’ means to the LGBTQIA+ communities of Paris; join a young trans man as he navigates gendered space on the Delhi metro; and follow the campaign to save one of London’s most iconic queer spaces\, the Joiner’s Arms. \nTickets are priced on a sliding scale £0-£8 depending on what you can afford. To book\, please use the button below or call CCA box office on +44 (0)141 352 4900. \n[bra_button text=’Buy Tickets’ url=’https://ccaglasgow.ticketsolve.com/shows/873611627/events/129089661′ target=’_blank’ size=’medium’ style=’rounded’ color=’pink’] \n  \nACCESS \nThis screening has an age recommendation of N/C 12+. \nFilms have English\, French\, and Hindi audio with English subtitles/captions.

Ray Van Huizen and Ella Martin-Gachot\, Country: France\, Year: 2019\, Language/s: French\, English\nFilmed in Paris while Ray Van Huizen and Ella Martin-Gachot were studying abroad\, the documentary explores the relationship that people in the LGBTQIA+ communities of Paris have with the concepts of home and public space. \nContent note: Discussion of mental health issues including suicide\, violence\, transphobia\, biphobia\, and racism. \nTrojan Horse / Rainbow Flag (26m)\nDir: Ian Giles\, Country: UK\, Year: 2019\, Language/s: English\nWorking directly with members of Friends of the Joiners Arms\, Ian Giles’ newly-commissioned film Trojan Horse/Rainbow Flag examines the campaign to save this iconic LGBTQI+ space. The title is inspired by campaigner Amy Roberts\, when describing the cynical approach of property developers seeking to push through proposals to erase queer spaces by disingenuously claiming that their LGBTQI+ status would remain unchanged post-development. \nContent note: Discussion of abusive relationships\, violence\, queerphobia\, misogyny\, and classism. \nPlease Mind the Gap (20m)\nDir. Mitali Trivedi and Gagandeep Singh\, Country: India\, Year: 2018\, Language/s: Hindi\, English\nDelhi meets at the metro. The snaking lines of the tube connect the whole city. Passengers board from different places but for a brief moment in time they are all headed in the same direction. We share one such ride with our co-traveller Anshuman\, a trans man. As the stations pass by we begin to look at the metro space from his perspective. His is the story of reclaiming public space and one’s own self. The doors will open on the quest. Please mind the gap. \nContent note: Discussion of transphobia.

SUMMARY:SQIFF Shorts: Tender Anguish
DESCRIPTION:Harika Özer is an impoverished trans sex worker whose family sought refuge from Siirt to Manisa in Turkey in the 80s. Raf\, a young queer man in the UK\, struggles to find his place amongst the crowd in a dive gay bar. Icarus arrives in a new city in Brazil and begins an affair with a man that soon goes agonisingly wrong. Real historical figure Mary MacLane cuts a forlorn queer figure in her lonely Montana hometown at the turn of the 20th Century. And Fetish is a Black man in the streets reclaiming his body through magic\, fire\, and defiance. Each character experiences pain and vulnerability and must negotiate how to cope in these stories of tenderness and anguish. \nTickets are priced on a sliding scale £0-£8 depending on what you can afford. To book\, please use the button below or call CCA box office on +44 (0)141 352 4900. \n[bra_button text=’Buy Tickets’ url=’https://ccaglasgow.ticketsolve.com/shows/873598286′ target=’_blank’ size=’medium’ style=’rounded’ color=’pink’] \n  \nACCESS \nFilms are in English\, Portuguese\, and Turkish languages with English language subtitles/captions.

In his own words\, he is a transsexual feeling female spirit in his own body since early childhood. He has lived in Izmir since 2000 and makes a living through prostitution. This work is a documentary project realised by Harika (literally translated as ‘wonderful’)\, posing for the camera with all his self-confidence and courage. It gives the audience a non-judgemental stance against homophobia. \nFour Quartets (10m)\nDir. Marco Alessi\, Year: 2018\nOver the course of a night out in a gay dive bar\, Raf struggles to find his place amongst the crowd. Four Quartets is a short film about queer community\, and how the anxieties and conditioning we face sometimes stop us from letting ourselves belong. \nAdeus Estrada de Tijolos Amarelos (19m)\nDir. Hiran Matheus\, Year: 2018\nIcarus arrives in another city to try life as a telemarketer\, but when he goes out at night he is caught by a boy. Screenplay based on a Elton John song and filmed with a cell phone. \nBetween my flesh and the world’s fingers (31m)\nDir. Talena Sanders\, Year: 2018\nMary MacLane\, the Wild Woman of Butte\, Montana\, published her diaries in 1902 and 1917. As an out queer and proto-feminist at the turn of the century\, MacLane became notorious upon the publication of her 1902 diary\, I Await the Devil’s Coming. She was whisked away from the industrial hellscape of her copper mining Montana hometown to a life in the public eye as an author\, journalist\, female film pioneer and always a provocateur – sending up social norms throughout her career\, with a special focus on staid notions about women and sexuality. \nBetween my flesh and the world’s fingers is an experimental essay and diary film primarily based on her published diaries and her film work. \nFETISH (16m)\nDir. Topher Campbell\, Year: 2018\nThe character of Fetish is a representation of so many things. He is at once a clear form – a body – and formless\, like the bodies of Basquiat. As a Black man in the streets\, he is both positioned by othering and places himself in a world of looking\, power\, strength\, harassment\, fashion\, sexual objectification\, invisibility\, visibility\, admiration\, CCTV\, selfies\, vulnerability\, humour\, performance\, protest\, danger\, violence and humour. If you have ever been stopped by police for being Black\, embarrassment\, futility and vulnerability are at the apex of the experience. Or\, as is the case with Tamir\, Philando\, Freddy\, Sandra and so on\, being dead and treated like shit is what happens. Fetish in this film experiences and represents this painful embarrassment and vulnerability. It’s hard to watch and painful to experience. \nBy the end of the film through magic\, through fire\, through defiance\, through being a multi-dimensional being in touch with the elements\, Fetish reclaims his body and stands like a colossus in The City.

SUMMARY:Walking:Holding
DESCRIPTION:What does your town look like from someone else’s perspective? What’s it like to hold hands with a complete stranger and walk through the city centre? \nPerformance art and mobile technology converge in Walking:Holding\, a meditative documentary that journeys through urban landscapes exploring identity and intimacy in public space with a focus on LGBTQ+ experiences. \nThis film is a response to Glasgow based artist Rosana Cade’s award-winning interactive performance of the same name\, which invites audience members to embark on a carefully designed route through a town whilst holding hands with a series of different local participants. Shot entirely on mobile phones\, the film follows the performance to 6 towns across the UK between June and November 2016\, bookended by the Brexit vote and the election of Donald Trump. This unique collaborative documentary offers an insight into the intimate work at a particularly poignant time in terms of identity politics\, weaving together a range of perspectives and experiences from across the country. \nFollowed by a discussion with the filmmakers and participants of the Walking:Holding performance. Supported by the Jerwood Charitable Foundation and using public funds from the National Lottery through Arts Council England. \nImage credit: Walking:Holding by Rosana Cade\, Charlie Cauchi and Claire Nolan \nTickets are priced on a sliding scale £0-£8 depending on what you can afford. To book\, please use the button below. \n[bra_button text=’Buy Tickets’ url=’https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/walkingholding-tickets-51783909066′ target=’_blank’ size=’medium’ style=’rounded’ color=’pink’] \n  \nACCESS \nFilm is in the English language with English language subtitles/captions. \nWe are awaiting information about how accessible the film is for blind and partially sighted audiences.
