Alicia Cenci): In the mountains\, she is Elisabeth the skier\, in the streets\, she is Elisabeth the activist.

SUMMARY:Queer East Presents: Peafowl 공작새
DESCRIPTION:🔊 Listen to this Event Page\n        \n    \n  \nShin-myung is a transgender woman and dancer who competes in waacking. Having cut ties with her family and rural hometown\, Shin-myung seeks various ways to fund her gender reassignment surgery. But one day\, she is informed that her estranged father\, a master of Nongak folk music\, has died. He stipulated that Shin-myung can receive her inheritance money if she returns to the village and performs a traditional drum dance\, as part of his memorial rituals. Unwilling to yield to her intolerant father’s posthumous demands\, the unapologetic Shin-myung is forced to reluctantly reconnect with her past while staying true to herself. Driven by an empowering vision of trans identity\, this assured debut feature from Byun Sung-bin contemplates the possibilities – and limits – of forgiveness. \nTickets are on a pay what you can sliding scale of FREE\, £2\, £4\, £6\, £8\, or £10.

SUMMARY:Animation Now
DESCRIPTION:🔊 Listen to this News Post\n        \n    \n  \n‘Animation Now’ celebrates a new generation of queer animators. The programme includes both 2D and 3D animation in the form of narrative shorts\, experimental art film and an immersive game walkthrough.  \nThe screening starts with the heartfelt 3D animation Dear Nana telling the story of the narrator’s late grandmother who was a supportive figure throughout their life. Clotilde follows in a stop-motion animated medium and provides a playful light-hearted moment in the programme. \nThe screening ends with a panel featuring some of the filmmakers in the programme on the newest wave of digital animation. Expect talk of gaming-inspired filmmaking. \nCurated by Nat Lall.\n \nTickets are on a pay what you can sliding scale of FREE\, £2\, £4\, £6\, £8\, or £10. To book\, click here or call the CCA Box Office on 0141 352 4900. \n  \nDear Nana (2023\, Dir. Han Nguyen): Dear Nana is a deeply personal work that reflects my own childhood memory of living as a queer kid in a small\, conservative town in North Central Coast\, Vietnam. It is made in memory of my maternal grandmother who passed away in 2011. She was the first person to teach me that there is no shame in being myself and doing whatever makes me happy instead of trying to conform to the norm and doing what is expected of me. This work is both about remembering her and reassuring myself that she would still be supportive of me now that I have come so far in my journey of self-expression. The film also features aspects of Vietnamese culture\, such as the tradition to venerate our ancestors and pray for their blessings. \nClotilde (2023\, Dir. Maria João Lourenço): In a planet where reproduction is mandatory in the daily life of its inhabitants\, there is an alien who just wishes to pleasure herself. \nWhite-Haired Witch and Black-Haired Witch (2023\, Dir. Yini Yang): In a distant corner of the universe\, amidst flowers\, vines\, and an endless expanse of crimson water\, numerous placentas float. One of the placentas connects two fetuses\, and in a flash of lightning\, the placenta is divided into two halves. From one of the halves\, a white-haired witch grows gradually\, longing to find the other half of the fetus but unable to locate it. Consequently\, it gives birth to a black-haired witch from its own body to coexist. One day\, the black-haired witch embarks on a journey\, leaving behind a letter documenting its travels for the white-haired witch. While waiting\, the white-haired witch finds answers and returns to the primordial dream. \nLiving with It (2023\, Dir. Holly Summerson): Perfectionist Lee (Annabelle Davis) must adapt to the imperfect reality of living with an illness – brought to life as a chaotic supernatural flatmate – Bug (Lawrence Chaney). Accepting the long-term effects of illness – and making the best of an imperfect situation – are explored through the relationship between two dysfunctional flatmates in this dark comedy animated short. \nComing Out Autistic (2023\, Dir. Steven Fraser): Coming out Autistic is a short animated documentary that explores the experience of telling the world that you are autistic when you also identify as LGBTQ+. Queer coming out stories are well documented\, but the occurrence of telling friends\, family\, co-workers and strangers that you are autistic is less explored. Parallels with queer experiences are investigated and a wide range of individuals are interviewed to express the array of feelings and reactions that are encountered. \nDesire’s Exhibition (2023\, Dir. Salmo Pagão): With the aim of finding Desire\, so-and-so performs a ritual to go down in the depths of himself. There he came across an exhibition of Desire’s works which had until then haunted his dreams and non-dreams in land. It is important to him confront the works\, recognize them\, and rise with crucial answers. \nA mother’s love for her baby (2022\, Dirs. Éiméar McClay & Cat McClay): Using a combination of 3D animation and experimental prose\, A mother’s love for her baby explores the corruption and conditions endemic in the Magdalene Laundries and mother and baby homes run by the Catholic church in Ireland throughout the 20th century. Influenced by Saidiya Hartman’s concept of “critical fabulation” – the use of storytelling to fill the gaps left in historical records – the film advocates for a bottom-up form of historiography: centring historically marginalised voices of Irish women and critiquing the structures of power that (re)produce their dispossession. \nJunior & The Kid (2023\, Dir. Dani Wasserman): Junior & The Kid is a sparse retelling of a fictional love affair between an unnamed western cowboy and 90s baseball superstar and heartthrob Ken Griffey Jr. \nWhere the Mouth is (Machinima Version) (2022\, Dir. Benjamiin Hall): Set in the Saxon-era archipelago once where Oxford now stands\, “Where the Mouth” is (re)builds Oxfordshire as an interactive world outside of time\, leaping off from the collections of the public Museum of Oxford. You are let loose in the swampy terrain to observe the local tradition of ‘beating the bounds’ – marking parish boundary stones with a stick in order to embed them in the memory of the town’s residents. The mouth of that collective memory has issued many truths\, half-truths\, desires\, cries\, anecdotes\, apocryphal stories\, and tiny reminders of a future from the past.  \nOriginally commissioned by the Museum of Oxford and Digital Artist Residency\, with later support from Bloomberg New Contemporaries Digital Fellowships; Soundtrack by Peter Talisman (Slugabed and Samuel Organ) as mixed from their 2021 album ‘Lord of the Harvest’; Movement/ motion capture performance by Anya Sirina; Special thanks to Tom Milnes. \nPatches (2021\, Dir. Georgie Athanasopoulos): Outcast due to physical differences\, a lonely little boy in the 1920’s makes an unlikely friend and finds belonging through sacrifice. \nThe Prince’s Dilemma (2023\, Dir. Devin Rowe): The film follows Prince Philip\, who longing to be with a prince of his own\, must decide to follow the traditional tale expected of him or forge his own happily ever after. \n  \nACCESSIBLITY  \nContent Warnings: \n\nDiscussion of living with a chronic illness;\nDepictions of animated genitalia\, animated masturbation.\n\nThis screening has an age recommendation of N/C 16+. \n74 minutes long with a Q&A after the screening. \nEnglish\, Latin\, Portuguese\, and Vietnamese audio and screens with English language captions. BSL-English interpretation and live captioning provided for the intro and panel discussion. \nWe have an Audience Access Fund for travel.

Frances Damian Arpaia): A non-narrative cine-essay that collaboratively explores the potentials for trans-feminine representation in film. \nThe Backside of God (2020\, Dir. Hogan Seidel): The Backside of God is an experimental documentary utilizing archival footage\, digital glitch\, chemical abstraction\, and direct animation to explore the intricacies of the artist’s relationship with their familial\, religious\, and queer identity. \nBigger on the Inside (2022\, Dir. Angelo Madsen Minax): From an isolated wooded cabin a trans man star gazes\, scruff chats with guys\, watches youtube tutorials\, takes drugs\, and lies about taking drugs – feeling his way through a cosmology of embodiment. Relative to the immensity of longing\, the bodily insides become both portal and lens through which to probe the porousness between interior and exterior\, the micro and macro. Nudes and landscapes are equally erotic\, as Eros is an issue of boundaries: When i desire you\, a part of me is gone. \n  \nACCESSIBLITY  \nContent Warnings: \n\nDiscussion of transphobia\, misogyny\, religious views\, homophobia\, emotional edging\, mental health\, sex;\nDepiction of masturbation\, sex.\n\n\nAccess Notes: \n\nGlitchy imagery\n\nThis screening has an age recommendation of N/C 16+. \n61 minutes long with a Q&A after the screening. \nEnglish\, Latin\, Portuguese\, and Vietnamese audio and screens with English language captions. BSL-English interpretation and live captioning provided. \nAudio description available for the film.

SUMMARY:Framing Agnes + Conversation at An Lanntair\, Stornoway
DESCRIPTION:Agnes\, the pioneering\, pseudonymized\, transgender woman who participated in Harold Garfinkel’s gender health research at UCLA in the 1960s\, has long stood as a figurehead of trans history.  \nIn this rigorous cinematic exercise that blends fiction and nonfiction\, director Chase Joynt explores where and how her platform has become a pigeonhole. Framing Agnes endeavors to widen the frame through which trans history is viewed — one that has remained too narrow to capture the multiplicity of experiences eclipsed by Agnes’.  \nThrough a collaborative practice of reimagination\, an impressive lineup of trans stars take on vividly rendered\, impeccably vintage reenactments\, bringing to life groundbreaking artifacts of trans healthcare.  \nJoynt’s signature form-rupturing style radically reenvisions the imposition of the frame on the cultural memory of transness through his brilliantly crafted\, communally-driven excavation. This reclamation tears away with remarkable precision the myth of isolation as the mode of existence of transgender history-makers\, breathing new life into a lineage of collaborators and conspirators who have been forgotten for far too long. \nFollowing the screening of Framing Agnes\, stay tuned for a conversation with local trans and non-binary people on inter-generational trans experiences and creating space for the community. \nCurated by Indigo Korres. \nTickets are available on a pay what you can sliding scale of FREE\, £5\, £6.50\, £8. To book\, click here \n  \nAccessibility: \nThis screening has an age recommendation of N/C 15+. \nEnglish audio and British Sign Language with English language captions. BSL-English interpretation for intro and post-film conversation. \nAudio description available for the film. Headsets available at the cinema entrance. \nQuiet Room available. \nInduction Loop available. \n75 minutes long with a 45 minutes post-film conversation. \nWe have an Audience Access Fund for travel costs.

SUMMARY:Sediments at GFT\, Glasgow
DESCRIPTION:  \n\nLike the Earth\, our interior is formed by different strata\, which forge our identity and tell our life story. What circumstances intervene in this process and make us become who we are today? \nSix trans women travel to a small town in León where they will explore unusual landscapes\, as well as the ins and outs of their own personalities. Looking for answers about what connects them as a group\, they will learn to deal with their differences.  \nSediments is an engaging and fun story about empathy\, individuality and the need to belong. It is the present radiography of a collective\, which looks into the past and projects itself into the future\, celebrating the extraordinary possibility of being unique and unrepeatable. \nSupported by Film Hub Scotland\, part of the BFI’s Film Audience Network\, and funded by Screen Scotland and National Lottery funding from the BFI. \nCurated by Indigo Korres. \nTickets are on a pay what you can sliding scale of FREE\, £2\, £4\, £6\, £8\, or £10.

SUMMARY:Framing Agnes + Conversation at GFT Glasgow
DESCRIPTION:Agnes\, the pioneering\, pseudonymized\, transgender woman who participated in Harold Garfinkel’s gender health research at UCLA in the 1960s\, has long stood as a figurehead of trans history. \nIn this rigorous cinematic exercise that blends fiction and nonfiction\, director Chase Joynt explores where and how her platform has become a pigeonhole. Framing Agnes endeavors to widen the frame through which trans history is viewed — one that has remained too narrow to capture the multiplicity of experiences eclipsed by Agnes’.  \nThrough a collaborative practice of reimagination\, an impressive lineup of trans stars take on vividly rendered\, impeccably vintage reenactments\, bringing to life groundbreaking artifacts of trans healthcare.  \nJoynt’s signature form-rupturing style radically reenvisions the imposition of the frame on the cultural memory of transness through his brilliantly crafted\, communally-driven excavation. This reclamation tears away with remarkable precision the myth of isolation as the mode of existence of transgender history-makers\, breathing new life into a lineage of collaborators and conspirators who have been forgotten for far too long. \nFollowing the screening of Framing Agnes\, stay tuned for a conversation with local trans and non-binary people on inter-generational trans experiences and creating space for the community. \nCurated by Indigo Korres. \nTickets are on a pay what you can sliding scale of FREE\, £2\, £4\, £6\, £8\, or £10.
