Queer Shorts Night

Doors 19.00, start 19.30, entrance 3,-. RSVP HERE!

An evening of queer cinema featuring three short films, each made by a local queer filmmaker, Though the films are stylistically varied, they all examine themes of care, trust and discovery within queer relationships. Each film will be followed by an in-person Q&A with the director. 3 euro entrance.

All films with English subtitles.

Walk Me Home – Maartje Rees, 11 min.
Two girls meet each other at a party and bring home a friend of theirs who is a bit too drunk. They wander around the streets of Utrecht and end up bringing each other home back and forth, because they don’t want the night to end.

In Sync – Anna Beerends, 10 min.
Three queer twentysomethings navigate their daily lives in Utrecht throughout this symmetrically framed mosaic narrative. A colourful slice of life visualising queer joy and celebration.

Jean and Sarah – Parker Burrows, 9 min.
A found mannequin leads Jean and Sarah towards a new hobby that quickly turns into an obsession. Rather than using dialogue to convey its narrative, Jean and Sarah tells its story through a close attentiveness to physical gestures. With eccentric costumes, gentle cinematography, and dreamy atmosphere, Jean and Sarah represents queerness by emphasizing its unspoken elements. The film draws a playful but tender connection between creating art and creating queer relationships: that the two flourish under the same foundations of warmth, trust and collaboration.
