About this event

Scholars and Staff are invited to a relaxed film evening on the 20th of June. We will be watching a selection of queer short films as part of the ‘Queer’ Asia film festival. This year’s film festival explores queer ‘survival’ in our difficult times.

How do LGBTQI+ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and intersex) individuals and communities navigate their everyday living conditions at the intersections of the pandemic, queerness, and different forms of hierarchies, crises, controls, and discriminations, including heterosexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia, etc.? How do we transgress global normativities, including the hegemonic discourse of temporality and space, challenge national and colonial ideologies, and manifest the impossibility of queer hopes, desires, and dreams? How do we revisit our past, create our present, and imagine the possibility and potentiality of queer futurity? Embark on the exploration of the glorious power of queer art of SURVIVAL.
