SUMMARY:Lemebel
DESCRIPTION:Pedro Lemebel’s sharp\, poetic texts and provocative performances make him one of South America’s most significant artists. Under Pinochet’s dictatorship in Chile\, Lemebel expressed things most wouldn’t dare. For the country’s left-wing opposition\, his queerness made him an awkward figure as he exposed their machismo and homophobia. Lemebel embodied an uncomfortable gay identity and fiercely criticised the wish of some queer people to assimilate. Lemebel uses slides and video clips to shape an essay-like memento\, enhanced with intimate interviews\, to portray a tireless fighter who continued to speak out until the end of his life. \nJoanna Reposi Garibaldi will join us for a Q&A after the screening. Kindly sponsored by Scottish Documentary Institute. Part of strand Latinx Legends. Joanna will also be giving a workhop on documentary filmmaking as part of the Festival.

SUMMARY:Vision Portraits
DESCRIPTION:Vision Portraits is a vivid and hypnotic exploration by filmmaker Rodney Evans illuminating the compelling stories of four visually impaired artists – photographer John Dugdale\, dancer Kayla Hamilton\, writer Ryan Knighton\, and the filmmaker himself. Evans contrasts their journeys with his own personal and professional one as a filmmaker gradually losing his vision and as a gay man. Evans’ self-reflexive approach emphasises how each artist adapted creatively and thrived as their process evolved with their unique perspectives. An important film for anyone interested in disability aesthetics\, demonstrating how blindness and visual impairment bring about distinct artistic viewpoints. \nScreening with Fashion in the Dark I and II (8m) by Emily Ford-Halliday exploring fashion and identity with people who are visually impaired or blind. Presented in association with Royal National Institute of Blind People Scotland. With an introduction by filmmaker and poet\, Ross Wilcock\, and filmmaker and academic\, Emily Ford-Halliday. \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/873611608/events/129089638′ target=’_blank’ size=’medium’ style=’rounded’ color=’pink’] \n  \nACCESS \nThis screening has an age recommendation of N/C 12+. \nFilms have English audio with English language subtitles/captions.

SUMMARY:We Are Parable presents: Dirty Computer: An Emotion Picture by Janelle Monae
DESCRIPTION:As part of their season “The Art of the Black Visual Album” We Are Parable partner with SQIFF to present a special screening of Janelle Monae’s Dirty Computer visual album or\, as she calls it\, “emotion picture.” Set in a dystopian nightmare\, Jane 57821 (played by Monae) is being subjected to having her memories removed or “cleaned\,” ones that mainly involve her relationship with Zen (Tessa Thompson). As the removal of her thoughts and feelings takes place\, we’re taken on a journey to find out who Jane really is\, with her emotions displayed as songs from Dirty Computer. \nPreceded by our Closing Night speeches and awards. After the screening\, we invite you to a listening party where CC TIME and SQU!SHY will perform a homage to Janelle Monae\, playing Dirty Computer in its entirety alongside other tunes. Includes tasty beers sponsored by Drygate Brewing Co. \nThis screening is part of the BFI Musicals nationwide season. \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/873611607/events/129089636′ target=’_blank’ size=’medium’ style=’rounded’ color=’pink’] \n  \nACCESS \nThis screening has an age recommendation of N/C 12+. \nFilm has English audio with English language subtitles/captions.

SUMMARY:SQIFF Shorts: Gross Out
DESCRIPTION:With supposed tolerance and acceptance of LGBT people in western public life comes enforced sanitisation and respectability. Straight society pats itself on the back for allowing (some of) us to get married and feature in shiny corporate advertising but is still repelled by our bodies and sex lives. To counter the continued suppression of fleshly and carnal appetites and practices\, we went on a hunt for the grossest\, most yucky films we could find. Featuring experimental musing on why we find our bodies disgusting and scary; some gay sex-tinged body horror; literal shit in a variety of forms; and a performance involving an empty stomach and a large jar of honey. Please note this programme requires resilience for what some would consider stomach-churning and gruesome imagery. \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/873611604/events/129089634′ target=’_blank’ size=’medium’ style=’rounded’ color=’pink’] \n  \nACCESS \nThis screening has an age recommendation of N/C 18+. \nFilms have English and Spanish audio with English language subtitles/captions.

Välja\, Country: UK\, Year: 2019\, Language/s: No spoken sound\nÄmber is an experimental film about the basic functions of the human body. The film studies affect; it seeks to raise the question of why we sometimes find our own bodies and their natural existence to be unpleasant\, disgusting\, and scary. The aim of the film is to make the audience uncomfortable in a humorous way. \nContent note: Depiction of bleeding. \nEstigma (14m)\nDir: David Velduque\, Country: Spain\, Year: 2018\, Language/s: Spanish\nIt’s Friday night\, the bell rings and Alex opens the door to the worst of his fears. “Estigma speaks to us about that inner prison we build because of fear of rejection and not being loved for who we are. This is the starting point of a story that I’ve intended to face as a personal matter\, dealing with my complex relationship with illness and rejection.” David Velduque \nContent note: Depiction of injury with body horror elements. \nNext Level Shit (11m)\nDir: Gary Jaffe\, Country: USA\, Year: 2018\, Language/s: English\nTaylor wants to be squeaky clean downstairs before his big third date with dreamboat Chris\, but his efforts backfire\, sending the relationship spiralling to a whole new level of intimacy. \nContent note: None. \nBear (13m)\nDir: Fred Guerrier\, Country: USA\, Year: 2018\, Language/s: English\nA bear-suit wearing dancer ignores the news of his estranged father’s death but begins to see his ghost. Meanwhile\, an ex-lover’s infatuation quickly devolves into something more sinister (and stinky). The line between reality and fiction get blurred during the terrifying showdown between the Bear\, the ghost\, and the lover. \nContent note: Depiction of death. \nForce Feed (15m)\nDir: Alan Vincent\, Country: USA\, Year: 2018\, Language/s: No spoken sound\nPerformance for video. One empty stomach\, one pound of honey. \nContent note: Depiction of overeating.
