AN/OTHER Film Festival | Screening + Q&A | Queer Minds and Bodies and Chosen Families

AN/OTHER Film Festival puts people with disability at the centre of storytelling and filmmaking. Join us for a week of films by and about people with disability. Encompassing a program of film screenings and conversations with filmmakers with disability, AN/OTHER Film Festival 2024 presents diverse stories and perspectives from around the globe

Queer Minds and Bodies and Chosen Families 

followed by Q&A with Steven Fraser

Life at the intersection of queer identities and disability

Queer Minds and Bodies and Chosen Families examines the intersection of queer identities and disability, and difficulty of not fitting neatly into categories of disability, sexuality or gender. How do we navigate this in a world that can struggle to understand one type of difference, never mind more than one embodied in the same person?
