We’re hosting the Screening Rights Film Festival at Warwick Arts Centre again this year, Thursday 26th – Sunday 29th October. The opening title is Casa Susanna + (Q&A)Link opens in a new window screening Thursday 26th October at 7.30pm. Before Paris is Burning, there was Casa Susanna; in this visually arresting, deeply felt documentary portrait of post-War, pre-Liberation American queer life, a group of transgender women and cross-dressing men find refuge and a sense of belonging at Casa Susanna, a bungalow hidden in the woods of Catskills.

To observe this international event we're promoting our Pronouns Pledge, which includes six simple actions to advance inclusive pronouns practices at Warwick, as well as a workshop on challenging incorrect pronouns and misgendering.

The Arts Faculty E&I Forum invite all students and staff interested in the conversation around Decolonise to sign up as part of this new group. Staff and students are invited to curate their own research, reading, or interests, in whatever form these may take – whether creative projects, academic or nonacademic writing, talks from invited speakers etc. Each group session's discussion will be curated by a staff member and a student.

The programme has developed a set of resources to support LGBTQUIA+ students and staff (and their supporters), including two coming out tools which can facilitate disclosures within the University community.

The Sex:Queer Research Network is an inclusive platform and research group for anyone interested in exploring issues related to sex, sexuality and queerness and wishing to participate in radical and thought-provoking dialogues.

Pedro Almodóvar’s tantalising short 'Strange Way of Life' starring Ethan Hawke and Pedro Pascal as a sheriff and an outlaw in love in the wild West, and Franz Rogowski, Ben Whishaw and Adèle Exarchopoulos headlining Ira Sachs’ seductive, intelligent new drama Passages, investigating the complexities and contradictions of love and desire.
