When QUEER Was Black and White – Film Heritage Festival

QueerScope is looking forward to the ›When QUEER Was Black and White – Film Heritage Festival‹ in Potsdam, Brandenburg in the context of New Queer Film Festivals 2024!

›Cinema has long been a space for progressive, taboo-breaking, and queer themes. Crossdressing and an anarchic play with gender roles and sexual identities have been part of film history from the beginning. The silent films of the 1910s and 1920s are particularly rich in such provocative content and imagery. (...) A three-day festival will honor significant and partially forgotten works and figures of queer film art and demonstrate their ongoing relevance. In collaboration with internationally renowned film heritage institutions like the Filmmuseum Potsdam and the Babelsberg Film University, a unique festival will be created.‹
