SQIFF18 SQIFF Shorts: Weird and Wild

An encounter with a strange funeral procession in Bethnal Green, a family losing the plot after meeting their son’s trans girlfriend, a middle-aged gay man seemingly eerily affected by a forest camping trip, and queer feminist gangs doing battle in a violent, dystopian present. Weird and Wild consists of work by filmmakers expert in creating tense atmospheres and queer moods whilst recounting their gripping tall tales.

–

Films in English, French, and Norwegian languages with English language subtitles/captions. Hearing loop available.

Films rely on visual material to convey ideas and two out of four films are non-English language, so less accessible for blind and partially sighted audiences. Large print versions of handouts available.

Comfy seating (bean bags) available. If you would like to reserve this, please contact access@sqiff.org.

We have a limited travel fund to assist people to come to the Festival for those who could not otherwise afford to attend. If you would like to apply for this, please contact access@sqiff.org.
