SUMMARY:Reas + Post Screening Discussion
DESCRIPTION:🔊 Listen to this Event Page\n        \n    \n  \nIn collaboration with Scottish Documentary Institute\, we’re proud to present REAS: a ground-breaking documentary-musical by Lola Arias that explores queer solidarity and kinship within the carceral system. The screening will be enriched by a post-film relaxed 30-minute workshop with filmmaker Erica Monde. \nYoseli has a tattoo of the Eiffel Tower on her back and has always wanted to travel\, but she was arrested at the airport for drug trafficking. Nacho is a trans man who was arrested for swindling and started a rock band in jail. Gentle or rough\, blonde or shaved\, cis or trans\, long-term inmates or newly admitted: in this hybrid musical\, they all re-enact their lives in a Buenos Aires prison. \nReas is a collective work that reinvents the musical genre: the performers dance and sing about their past in prison\, relive their life as fiction\, and invent\, through fantasy and imagination\, a possible future for themselves. \nTickets are on a pay what you can sliding scale. To book\, click here. \n\n\nAccessibility: \n\nAn age recommendation of BBFC 15.\nContent Notes: Contains mentions of drug and people trafficking.\nSpanish language audio with English language descriptive subtitles.\nFilmhouse is wheelchair accessible\, with gender neutral toilets.\n\nThis screening is 79 minutes long with an introduction and post-film workshop. \nIf you have any other access needs you would like to discuss with us\, please get in touch with us at info@sqiff.org. \n\n  \nDonate: \nDonate to SQIFF via PayPal or sign up to one of our four Patreon tiers to support our work and show us you’re a big SQIFF fan 🌈✨ \n  \nImage Credit: Reas\, Dir.

Conor Baird\, Year: 2018\nPouring On House engages with the gradual event of leaving a longtime family home. This strange grief is caught between the familiarity and fascination of interiors and the surrounding suburban sites. Throughout\, a body surveys potential presences of contamination whilst coming to realise a disorientating hopelessness felt from ongoing anti-queer conditioning. \nSubmerged Village (21m)\nDir. Andrew Black\, Year: 2017\nExpanding on elements of Pamela Colman Smith’s drawing for The Moon tarot card – two dogs\, a freshwater crayfish\, a pool of water\, a mountainous landscape – Submerged Village takes discrete moments at rural locations in Yorkshire and the West coast of Scotland and claims them as queer experiences.

SUMMARY:Women Who Kill
DESCRIPTION:Morgan and her ex-girlfriend Jean are locally famous true crime podcasters obsessed with female serial killers.

SUMMARY:A Womb of Their Own
DESCRIPTION:How do people who don’t experience themselves as simply female or male handle a culture that offers only these two identities? A Womb of Their Own introduces a charismatic\, funny\, thoughtful group of masculine-of-centre-identified people who go through pregnancy. Each individual and couple navigates gender expectations – coming even from within the LGBT community – that don’t fit them. Follow their stories as they establish their own gender\, develop their definition of family\, grow a baby in their bodies\, and birth\, chestfeed\, and parent their children as non-binary masculine people. \nACCESS: Level access at entrance of CCA with Cinema space on ground floor.

SUMMARY:ATOPOS\, generi teatranti
DESCRIPTION:Atopos Compagnia Teatrale is an Italian theatre company bringing together professional and non-professional actors\, both trans- and cisgender. This documentary is about their experiences in the creation of Atopos’ flagship production\, Human Variables. The film describes reality through chronicling the making of a play\, a conventionally fictitious endeavour. Human Variables is a show that builds on the real life experiences of the actors appearing on stage\, ready to lay themselves bare at the same time as putting on a costume. A story of the eternal dialectic between actor and character\, truth and fiction\, life and theatre. \nDirector Alberto Amoretti and cinematographer Giovanni Hänninen of ATOPOS will be in attendance for a Q&A after the screening.

SUMMARY:The Surface Tension Trilogy
DESCRIPTION:From activist and painter Frida Kahlo to filmmaker Leni Riefenstahl to Hitler’s lover Eva Braun – Liz Rosenfeld tells a trio of queer histories that may or may not have actually happened. Making no attempts to disguise the fact that\, despite taking place in 1924\, 1933 and 1977\, the films were clearly made in modern-day Berlin\, Rosenfeld turns the way we normally look at history on its head. \nDirector Liz Rosenfeld will join us for a Q&A after the screening. Presented in partnership with Goethe Institut Glasgow. \nACCESS: Level access with Cinema plus accessible toilets all on ground floor (CCA). Films mostly in German with English subtitles with some parts in English language with subtitles for D/deaf and hard of hearing access. Hearing loop available. If you would like to attend and require BSL interpretation for the Q&A\, please email info@sqiff.org at least one week in advance.\n \n£5 / £4 conc / Free for unemployed and asylum seekers. Festival pass £40 / £30 conc. All prices include booking fee. \nTo book tickets\, 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/873562023/events’ target=’_blank’ size=’medium’ style=’rounded’ color=’pink’]
