SUMMARY:When We Are Together We Can Be Everywhere
DESCRIPTION:When Marit Östberg finally had enough time to edit the footage she shot in 2011\, it was already four years old. And\, by then\, her idea of a mockumentary on how to (and how not to) make queer porn had quietly changed into something different: a nostalgic look at nostalgia and a way to rewrite her own history. Now\, she could look back at the idealism of the community she had lived and worked in\, but from the perspective of knowing how things had turned out. The result became something beautiful and thoughtful and funny and sad – and still very\, very hot. A film for sex-positive dreamers everywhere. \nWe’re pleased star Liz Rosenfeld will join us for a Q&A after the screening. Presented in partnership with Goethe Institut Glasgow. \nACCESS: Level access with Cinema plus accessible toilets all on ground floor (CCA). Film mostly in English language screening with subtitles for D/deaf and hard of hearing access. Some German language segments throughout. Hearing loop available. BSL interpretation for Q&A. \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/873562020/events’ target=’_blank’ size=’medium’ style=’rounded’ color=’pink’]

SUMMARY:Queer Horror: Fright Night

But with the evidence stacking up\, Charley enlists the help of washed-up television vampire killer Peter Vincent to destroy the suburban bloodsuckers. Basically posing as a posh homosexual couple\, these vamps have as much an appetite for fashion and antiques as they do for virginal flesh.

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. Pixar at its heart-tugging\, joyous best. \nWhy not make it a real trip out by checking out Platform’s Art Exhibitions\, Performance Programme as well as the public Library and Swimming Pool. \nACCESS: Level access\, ramps\, and accessible toilets (Platform). Films screening with subtitles for D/deaf and hard of hearing access. Film in English language.\n \nFREE but ticketed. Book tickets via the link below to be guaranteed a space. \n[bra_button text=’Buy Tickets’ url=’https://platform-online.ticketsolve.com/#/shows/873561276′ target=’_blank’ size=’medium’ style=’rounded’ color=’pink’]

SUMMARY:The Surface Tension Trilogy

Films mostly in German with English subtitles with some parts in English language with subtitles for D/deaf and hard of hearing access. Hearing loop available.

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.

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:To Russia with Love

To Russia with Love documents their responses and reactions\, speaking to a variety of contributors\, including current and former Olympians and local LGBT campaigners. \nFollowed by a panel discussion on the political situation surrounding events.

SUMMARY:SQIFF Shorts: Pull Yourself Together
DESCRIPTION:*SOLD OUT – As this is a free event\, it’s likely not everyone who has booked will turn up\, so it’s possible to come along on the night without booking and see if there’s a space.

SQIFF presents a collection of short films with authentic perspectives on the subject\, covering a range of topics and providing insights from a variety of individuals who have had personal encounters with mental health problems. Following the screening\, members of Glasgow’s LGBTQ+ community will discuss their own experiences\, including the stigma often surrounding such issues. \nIn partnership with LGBT Health and Wellbeing. \nContent note: discussion of suicide and self-harm. \nACCESS: Level access at entrance and then three stairs or a ramp to access the screening area. Accessible toilet next to the bar back down the stairs or ramp (The Glad Cafe). English language films. Films screening with subtitles for D/deaf and hard of hearing access.

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:Lesbian with a Movie Camera
DESCRIPTION:As part of LGBT History Month Scotland\, we present a lovingly-curated selection of indie\, punk\, and DIY lesbian shorts from across half a century of filmmaking\, featuring known names and unsung (s)heroes alike.  Ranging from the hilarious to the experimental\, the programme features a rare screening of Caroline Sheldon’s witty and subversive 17 Rooms (Or What Do Lesbians Do in Bed?). Scheduled in 1986 for a prime slot on Channel Four’s pioneering In The Pink season\, Sheldon’s film was scandalously pulled at the last minute – not because of any explicit content but because it was thought audiences might object to its title. \nThis is a free\, unticketed event; donations are very much appreciated and will collected after the screening.  The screening is on the ground floor of our venue Transmission. Accessible toilet available. Films shown will include captions for better D/deaf and hard of hearing access.

SUMMARY:Fox and His Friends (Inverness)
DESCRIPTION:In 1970s West Germany\, a young working-class gay man wins the lottery and is taken advantage of by his overbearing bourgeois lover. New German Cinema superstar and queer filmmaker Rainer Werner Fassbinder created his most explicit survey of gay culture in Fox and His Friends and stamped his trademark\, very cynical impression of human relationships onto it. Fassbinder himself plays the suggestible Fox with supporting cast featuring several from the director’s famous entourage including Harry Baer and Kurt Raab. A great chance to see a restored classic and an opportunity for those unfamiliar with the legendary filmmaker’s work to get acquainted. \nACCESS: Level access at entrance of Eden Court with Cinema space on ground floor.

SUMMARY:Who Will Fuck Daddy?
DESCRIPTION:A hypnotic\, intensely personal film featuring a mix of mysterious and mystical images: a masturbating moon\, a couple having sex in a tent filled with balloons and electric lights\, a pair of vibrators hidden in a head of lettuce. Beautifully episodic\, Who Will Fuck Daddy? switches from documentary sequences about parenthood\, gender\, ecstasy\, and rebirth\, to cruising sites in the Swedish forest\, to the question of just how much pressure to put on a pair of nipples.
