SUMMARY:Workshop: Working Class LGBTQ People in Film and TV
DESCRIPTION:Beginning with clips from TV and film\, we examine how LGBTQ working-class identities have been demonised\, patronised\, and romanticised onscreen\, before considering representation we would like to see in future. We will also think about how cultural venues can be made more welcoming to working-class people. \nThis workshop is for working-class people (background and/or current situation) and allies. Although interactive\, there is no pressure to actively participate in discussion. It is run by two working-class femme lesbians who navigate middle-classness via their work. Leanne Dawson is a lecturer at University of Edinburgh and Laura Wylie is completing a Masters in sexuality and class at University of Stirling. \nSuitable for ages 15+. \nACCESS: Space on ground floor with level access throughout. Accessible toilet available. BSL interpretation for event. \nThis workshop is FREE with booking in advance recommended. To book\, please use the button below. \n[bra_button text=’Buy Tickets’ url=’https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/workshop-working-class-lgbtq-people-in-film-tv-ages-15-tickets-37039391818′ target=’_blank’ size=’medium’ style=’rounded’ color=’pink’]

SUMMARY:SQIFF Opener: The Misandrists
DESCRIPTION:Queer film legend Bruce LaBruce’s newest feature dives headlong into the world of the Female Liberation Army hiding out in the heart of Gerwomany. Led by Big Mother\, the FLA indoctrinates its young recruits to take up the struggle of freeing all female people through a mix of revolutionary porn-making\, songs about taking down the patriarchy\, and even a sneaky dancing nun. But does the FLA’s brand of radical feminism hide some darker and more exclusionary beliefs? \nWe are excited to be joined by director Bruce LaBruce and actor Caprice Crawford for a Q&A after the screening followed by a drinks reception. \nPresented in partnership with Goethe Institut Glasgow. \nACCESS: Level access at entrance of CCA with lift up to first floor for Theatre space.
