Brief: As film increasingly dominates the visions of life and being in the world, this panel follows from the seminal work of Dr. Karl Schoonover in Queer Cinema in the World to discuss the ways in which film is bringing into conception queer worlds across Asia and its diasporas. Imagining new ways of being, thinking, and articulating desires and longing, love and struggle, and the violence that is imposed on ways of being queer in the world. From experimental film to the docufiction, join us for a powerful evening of films that transgress borders, expose oppression, and challenge the ways in which we rethink family, love, longing, and desires. Curated by: Dr J Daniel Luther and Queer Asia.
