SUMMARY:SQIFF Shorts: Luv Sucks
DESCRIPTION:Romantic relationships can be tough. SQIFF offers up an alternative to punching walls and texting your ex when pished with these shorts from the heart – as in stomping all over it and dumping it in the trash. A bisexual trio have a bust up in a toilet. A boy in a bath pines over his unavailable roommate. A woman has a near-but-not-quite romantic encounter with a fellow deafie. The vast power of the cosmos can’t prevent a bickering lesbian couple from breaking up. A sex worker has his hopes dashed by the man he loves. And in 2033 Botswana\, a man loses his lover to dystopian despair. \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/873611637/events/129089814′ target=’_blank’ size=’medium’ style=’rounded’ color=’pink’] \n  \nACCESS \nThis screening has an age recommendation of N/C 15+. \nFilms have a mixture of Arabic\, English\, Spanish\, Portuguese\, and Tswana audio and BSL with English subtitles/captions.

I therefore decided to create a beautiful\, be-sequinned sea monster out of my spine which would then dance according to my curvature. \nContent note: None.
