SUMMARY:Kattumaram
DESCRIPTION:Kattumaram depicts the Tsunami-affected lives of middle-aged Singaram and his orphaned niece Anandhi and nephew Mani. Singaram works hard as a fisherman to provide for his family and tries to arrange a groom for his niece\, who rejects all proposed alliances. Anandhi instead falls for Kavita\, a visiting photographer teaching alongside her at the local school. As patriarchal Singaram comes to terms with his niece’s sexuality\, he is ostracised by his community because of her transgression. Dealing with his deflated ego\, he bonds with the village barber and trans woman\, Alankaram. Kattumaram shows the predicament of people in a conservative society which offers warmth so long as its traditions are adhered to but turns cold and violent when they are broken. \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/873611629/events/129089663′ target=’_blank’ size=’medium’ style=’rounded’ color=’pink’] \n  \nACCESS \nThis screening has an age recommendation of N/C 12+. \nFilm has Tamil 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?

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:Talk: Queering the Small Screen
DESCRIPTION:Where cinema is falling behind in queer representation\, television is making leaps and bounds: in 2018\, a GLAAD survey showed a record-high percentage of queer characters on broadcast and streaming television.

As a wheelchair punk my DIY\, my freedom\, is mutual aid. We work with what we got! During the making of this film\, I was waiting for a new power chair\, waiting for folks to meet me as they can\, and in turn\, people wait for me as I romp around and am pushed in my manual chair. This is wheelchair smut\, and we have various ways of getting our chairs and our sexy selves where we need to go.” Lyric Seal \nContent note: Depiction of sex including light BDSM. \nSadistic Nurse (11m)\nDir: Pandora Blake\, Country: UK\, Year: 2015\, Language/s: English\nThis hot and very edgy spanking scenario was written by the performers\, real-life couple David Weston and Talia Lane.
