Celebrate the diversity and fluidity of desire with Touched, an alternative Valentine’s Day screening showcasing sensuous shorts by female and non-binary filmmakers.
Co-curated by collectives T A P E and Invisible Women, this subversive and surprising programme connects filmmakers from across the decades, combining contemporary work with rarities from the archive. The result is a witty, intimate and unapologetically sexy selection of films which open up space for wider discussions about self-love, intimacy and longing.
The screening will be introduced by Rebecca Ballard, Queer Vision Producer, then followed by a recorded Q&A with filmmakers Ruth Lingford, Lois Stevenson and Katayoun Jalilipour, hosted by Hana Flint.
The short films in the programme include:
