Queer Futurities

A program of shorts envisioning queer utopia, guest curated by Anderson Matthew

”Some will say that all we have are the pleasures of this moment, but we must never settle for that minimal transport; we must dream and enact new and better pleasures, other ways of being in the world, and ultimately new worlds.” (José Esteban Muñoz, Cruising Utopia)

For September’s Shadow Kitchen we present a program of short films by international queer artists, guest programmed by Anderson Matthew. Born out of Matthew’s current cinematic research on the vision of queer utopias in future cinema, Queer Futurities contemplates a variety of queer potentialities through dance, poetry, experimental, and narrative performance.

The program includes work by Yann Gonzalez, Zackary Drucker & Flawless Sabrina, Judit Kis, Savio Debernardis, Gianfranco Reyes, Phyllis Akinyi, and Rob Monaghan and more.

A conversation with Anderson Matthew will follow the screening.
