SUMMARY:LUX Scotland and SQIFF present: Dani Leventhal
DESCRIPTION:Presented by LUX Scotland in association with SQIFF and Transmission\, American artist Dani Leventhal visits Glasgow to show and discuss her recent video work. \nHer videos are disjunctive\, diaristic\, and often feature people who become the unassuming subjects of her work. Describing her working process\, Leventhal says\, “I start with a subject that I care deeply about / I concentrate on fear\, desire\, anger\, confusion\, and love. / I concentrate on the emotional relationships between humans\, humans and animals\, and humans and their environments. / I am particularly interested in the way we develop based on our experiences in childhood\, and then the process of undoing it.” \nPresenting her shorts alongside her recent collaboration Hard As Opal with Jared Buckhiester\, Leventhal will also present a preview of her in-progress work\, Strangely Ordinary This Devotion\, a collaboration with Sheilah Wilson. \nThis is event is free and unticketed. \nACCESS: Transmission is accessible for wheelchair users via Trongate 103. Please enter at the street entrance to Trongate 103 and take the lift to the basement floor. Accessible toilets available. SQIFF has a policy of screening films with English subtitles or captions for deaf and hard of hearing access but unfortunately we are not able to do so on this occasion – big apologies for this.

SUMMARY:Queer Horror: A Nightmare On Elm Street 2: Freddy's Revenge
DESCRIPTION:Described as ‘The Gayest Horror Movie Ever Made’\, Freddy’s Revenge is the first of many sequels to Wes Craven’s 1984 classic A Nightmare on Elm Street. Maligned for being cheap trash on its release\, the second film in the franchise has achieved cult status for its gloriously campy queer subtext. Virginal teenager\, Jesse\, feels he has something inside him that needs to ‘come out\,’ which turns out\, of course\, to be Freddy Krueger. Beyond this unsubtle\, central metaphor\, Jesse has a suspiciously close relationship with his male friend\, a sadomasochistic gym teacher who literally gets stripped and whipped\, and a supposed love interest who looks like Meryl Streep. \nIntroduced by Jordan Phillips\, queer horror maestro at Queen Margaret University. \nACCESS: Level access with Cinema plus accessible toilets all on ground floor (CCA). Film screening with subtitles for D/deaf and hard of hearing access. Hearing loop available. BSL interpretation for introduction. English language film.\n \n£5 / £4 conc / Free for unemployed and asylum seekers. Festival pass £40 / £30 conc. All prices include booking fee. \nTo book tickets\, 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/873560941/events’ target=’_blank’ size=’medium’ style=’rounded’ color=’pink’]

SUMMARY:SEX & The Silver Gays
DESCRIPTION:SEX & The Silver Gays tells the idiosyncratic story of a randy New York chapter of national senior gay men’s organisation\, the Prime Timers. Amidst a flurry of social activities\, members participate in monthly sex parties. These octogenarian orgiasts invite us to their intimate gathering\, illustrating explicitly their carnal activities and explaining frankly and inspiringly who they are. \nPresented in association with Luminate: Scotland’s creative ageing festival. \nACCESS: Level access with Cinema plus accessible toilets all on ground floor (CCA). Film screening with subtitles for D/deaf and hard of hearing access. Hearing loop available. Film in English language.\n \n£5 / £4 conc / Free for unemployed and asylum seekers.

SUMMARY:Queer Horror: The Haunting
DESCRIPTION:Dr. John Markway\, an anthropologist with an interest in psychic phenomena\, takes two specially selected women to Hill House\, a reportedly haunted mansion. Eleanor\, a lonely\, eccentric woman with a supernatural event in her past\, and the bold (and all but openly lesbian) Theodora\, who has ESP\, join John and the mansion’s heir\, cynical Luke. They are immediately overwhelmed by strange sounds and events\, and Eleanor comes to believe the house is alive and speaking directly to her. The Haunting is a pretty solid argument for the underlying queerness of the Hollywood horror movie aesthetic. \nScreening with short film Cheat (2 mins). Followed by a discussion on queer horror hosted by Jordan Phillips with guest Dr. Darren Elliott-Smith\, researcher and blogger on queerness\, gender\, and the body in horror film and television. \nACCESS: Level access at entrance with lift up to first floor for Theatre space.

SUMMARY:SQIFF Family Film: Inside Out
DESCRIPTION:Do you ever look at someone and wonder what is going on inside their head? Inside Out ventures inside the mind to find out. Platform Glasgow is proud to present a FREE screening of Disney Pixar’s original new film as part of this year’s Scottish Queer International Film Festival. \nBased in Headquarters\, the control center inside 11-year-old Riley’s mind\, five Emotions are hard at work\, led by lighthearted optimist Joy (voice of Amy Poehler)\, whose mission is to make sure Riley stays happy. Fear (voice of Bill Hader) heads up safety\, Anger (voice of Lewis Black) ensures all is fair and Disgust (voice of Mindy Kaling) prevents Riley from getting poisoned—both physically and socially. Sadness (voice of Phyllis Smith) isn’t exactly sure what her role is\, and frankly\, neither is anyone else. \nWhen Riley’s family relocates to a scary new city\, the Emotions are on the job\, eager to help guide her through the difficult transition. But when Joy and Sadness are inadvertently swept into the far reaches of Riley’s mind—taking some of her core memories with them—Fear\, Anger and Disgust are left reluctantly in charge. Joy and Sadness must venture through unfamiliar places—Long Term Memory\, Imagination Land\, Abstract Thought and Dream Productions—in a desperate effort to get back to Headquarters\, and Riley.

SUMMARY:Queer Horror: Otto; or Up with Dead People
DESCRIPTION:Transgressive filmmaker Bruce LaBruce gave the zombie genre a distinctive update with Otto\, set in a not-too-distant future in which the undead have evolved the ability to speak and reason\, yet are still persecuted by the living. Sensitive Otto wanders the streets of Berlin before being recruited by eccentric filmmaker Medea Yarn for her zombie insurrection “magnum corpus” Up with Dead People. Whilst the eponymous hero struggles with unliving in the world\, LaBruce’s film develops into a savagely irreverent critique of consumer culture and a moving parable for being different. \nScreening with short Sauna the Dead: A Fairy Tale (21 mins). Introduced by Jordan Phillips\, queer horror maestro at Queen Margaret University. \nContent note: hardcore zombie sex and eating of flesh. \nACCESS: Level access with Cinema plus accessible toilets all on ground floor (CCA).

SUMMARY:Intersexion
DESCRIPTION:Is it a boy? Is it a girl? What if it’s neither? This award-winning doc explores the world of intersex people – those born with any one of a large number of variations that make their gender ambiguous according to traditional binary ideals. Presenter Mani Bruce Mitchell\, one of New Zealand’s first out intersex people\, and director Grant Lahood locate interviewees willing to share their experiences. They discuss living in a society with a restricted view of gender which\, at best\, has made them all but invisible and\, at worst\, has subjected many to damaging ‘corrective’ surgery. \nFollowed by a discussion with Joe Holliday from the UK’s first Intersex NGO Intersex UK and film critic and activist Jennie Kermode. \nACCESS: Level access at entrance with lift up to first floor for Theatre space. Accessible toilets on first floor (CCA). Film screening with subtitles for D/deaf and hard of hearing access. BSL interpretation for discussion. Audio description available.
