SUMMARY:Queer East Presents: Bye Bye Love (50th Anniversary) - SOLD OUT
DESCRIPTION:🔊 Listen to this Event Page\n        \n    \n**Please note this event is now sold out – we may be able to release more tickets nearer the screening. CCA Box Office are operating a waiting list for sold out events – please contact them directly or go to their website to be added to this!** \nUntil the 2018 discovery of a film negative in a warehouse\, Bye Bye Love was long considered lost: a new print gives audiences a rare chance to revisit this radical work from 1974. Following two young people\, Utamaro and Giko\, on a doomed summer road trip through Japan\, Isao Fujisawa’s poetic\, surreal work reflects on the dissipating promise of 1960s counterculture and free love. The film is stylistically influenced by the French New Wave and American New Cinema\, notably Jean-Luc Godard and Arthur Penn. Yet the main character’s name – Utamaro – also suggests a rethinking of Japanese artistic traditions\, especially male perspectives on feminine beauty. Here\, romantic love transcends gender\, sexuality\, and even the body; a queer challenge to conventional understandings of relationships that adds to the political charge of this rediscovered classic.  \nWith a recorded message from director Isao Fujisawa and special introduction by Xuanlin Tham. \nContent notes: Depiction of physical violence\, police\, sex\, gun violence\, death\, nudity\, cigarette use\, small amounts of blood\, cut. \nCurated by Yi Wang. \n  \nTickets are on a pay what you can sliding scale of FREE\, £2\, £4\, £6\, £8\, £10\, or £12.
