Schuur and Nieuwe Vide jointly present The Queer Image: an intersectional interdisciplinary film program with a queer feminist character. Together we choose a film around themes that play a role in the community. Films in which LGBTQIA people and women are not marginalized or victims, but rather make their voices heard and are in the spotlight.
Bernardo Zanotta (1996, Brazil) is a filmmaker and visual artist based in Amsterdam. His films combine historical and fictional stories that subvert genre and convention. His work has been exhibited internationally at art venues, cinemas and festivals, including FID Marseille, Rotterdam and Locarno, where he received the Pardino d’Argento for his film Heart of Hunger (2018). In addition to short and medium projects, he is currently developing his first feature film.
On the 22nd of January we will see a piece from Wild Fruits, his new short film, and hear from Zanotta about queer ‘period pieces.’ Afterwards we will have a short conversation about what we saw and the connections that can be made between Wild Fruits and Orlando.
