Moire
Spain, 2014, 14 mins. Dir. Stephanie Cortes and Juancho Banuelos

Each house keeps a family’s secret locked away. In a house dominated by Sergio’s grandfather, Sergio’s grandmother is a secret ally, providing precious moments in a safe hideaway for Sergio’s gender to be explored.

She Male Snails
Sweden, 2012, 72 mins. Dir. Ester Martin Bergsmark

She Male Snails is a visual fantasy of delicately flavoured contrasts, of delirium and sensuality, distillation and disjuncture, and the reclamation of femininity from the destruction of masculine forces. The film portrays people that are caught between genders, more than just a boy or girl, with an eye for feminine androgyny. The protagonists Eli and Ester struggle with anxiety, violence, and the problematic nature of self-definition. The film explores the challenges of reciprocating love, when simply remaining alive is a task. She Male Snails is a story of survival, love and resistance.

All foreign language films will have English subtitles
