It prompts us to ask what connections we can make from archive photographs and texts that have a bearing on our lives today. <em>\u00bbWhat took you so long?\u00ab<\/em> also refers to the futuristic yet real working world presented to us in Ayoung Kim\u2019s elaborately animated film <strong>Delivery Dancer\u2019s Sphere<\/strong>. Body and time are optimised, unforeseen events throw us off course. In <strong>Places I&#8217;ve Called My Own<\/strong>, the protagonist must evaluate the conditions each location offers for a queer life, where going <em>back<\/em> may no longer be an option. Chance encounters in everyday life can also provide the initial impetus for change, as shown in the urban backdrop of <strong>Saigon Kiss<\/strong>.<br \/>\nIt is within this dynamic tension \u2013 between the past and notions of a possible future \u2013 that these four artistic film contributions unfold, both atmospherically and politically.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":40456,"template":"","movie_cat":[794],"event_cat":[],"event_type":[],"festival":[805],"class_list":["post-40650","event","type-event","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","movie_cat-desired-film-lust-and-queer-en-2025","festival-2025-en"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.8 -
