SUMMARY:The Owls at GFAF
DESCRIPTION:Two OWL (older\, wiser lesbian) couples accidentally kill a younger woman and hide the body but their dark secret comes back to haunt them in Cheryl Dunye’s experimental\, collaborative movie\, The Owls. Featuring Dunye’s trademark\, self-reflexive style where both characters and actors create video diaries adjacent to the main narrative\, The Owls also attempted collective filmmaking with cast and crew encouraged to pitch in ideas.\n \nThose involved form a roll call of lesbian film excellence with Guinevere Turner\, Lisa Gornick\, V.S. Brodie\, and Dunye playing the ageing\, bitter queers\, and Sarah Schulman\, Alex Juhasz\, and Campbell X amongst others working behind the scenes. Dunye’s fourth feature film as director is an under-appreciated examination of lesbian culture and aesthetics with a good dose of crime movie genre fun thrown in. \n \nThe film will be introduced by SQIFF’s Helen Wright. Screening as part of Glasgow Feminist Arts Festival\, taking place 15 to 18 November.\n \nTickets are priced on a sliding scale £0-£8 depending on what you can afford. To book\, please use the button below. \n[bra_button text=’Buy Tickets’ url=’https://ccaglasgow.ticketsolve.com/shows/873598169′ target=’_blank’ size=’medium’ style=’rounded’ color=’pink’]\n \n  \nACCESS \nFilm in the English language with English language subtitles/captions for access. Hearing loop available. \nFilm relies to some extent on visual material to convey ideas but contains a lot of explanatory dialogue. Large print versions of handouts available. \nCCA has good access for wheelchair users. Click here for more details on venue access. \nComfy seating (bean bags) available. If you would like to reserve this\, please contact access@sqiff.org.

SUMMARY:A Fantastic Woman at An Lanntair
DESCRIPTION:Marina (Daniela Vega) is planning a future with her boyfriend Orlando (Francisco Reyes) when he suddenly becomes ill and passes away. She is devastated and immediately feels the sting of discrimination as a transgender woman when hospital staff and Orlando’s ex-wife and son challenge her right to grieve and the viability of her lost relationship. Marina is defiant in the face of oppression\, though\, as the film follows her around with stunning fantasy set pieces revealing her inner life. Lead actor Daniela Vega collaborated with director Sebastián Lelio on the script to bring an authentic trans experience to the story. As a result\, A Fantastic Woman represents a positive leap in representation of trans women in cinema. \nIntroduced by SQIFF Festival Coordinator\, Helen Wright. \nTickets are priced on a sliding scale £0-£8 depending on what you can afford. To book\, please use the button below. \n[bra_button text=’Buy Tickets’ url=’http://lanntair.com/events/event/a-fantastic-woman/’ target=’_blank’ size=’medium’ style=’rounded’ color=’pink’] \nACCESS \nFilm is in the Spanish language with English language subtitles/captions. \nLarge print versions of handouts available. \nAn Lanntair has good access for wheelchair users. lease email access@sqiff.org for more details on venue access. \nWe have a limited travel fund to assist people to come to the Festival for those who could not otherwise afford to attend.
