An evening of short film works and discussion with Rahne Alexander featuring a screening of “Equal+Opposite” and another recent short work
“Equal+Opposite”
July 22nd, 8:30PM
Red Clover Collective
About the film
From the early silents of Lubitsch to The Crying Game and beyond, gender-variant characters persistently provide cinematic shock upon the revelation of their “true sex.” Turning the focus away from the gender-variant body, “Equal+Opposite” instead explores the range of physical and emotional reactions by “protagonists” to transgendered bodies, from curiosity to revulsion. “Equal+Opposite” premiered at MIX21: The New York Queer Experimental Film Festival in October 2008.
