Get Bent: Cinema At The Intersection of Queerness & Disability
Presented by Lawrence Carter-Long, (founder of The disTHIS! Film Series)
Bent is British slang for queer. It has also been used to describe disabled bodies. Join us on the path where queerness and disability collide, and view depictions of crip queer sex(uality), in ways that are both shocking and enlightening.
Have you ever wondered or been asked: Why are there so many queers in the disability community? Is there something about being disabled that makes someone more likely to come out queer? Do queer people with disabilities, ever get laid?
Join Lawrence Carter-Long as we examine the cinematic space and dive directly into these questions to seek answers and more.
Lecture and projection in English.
