SEX IS WORK (Night 2)

THE BLUE DEVILS (LOS DIABLOS AZULES)
Dir. Charlotte Bayer-Broc, 2017
48 mins. France/Chile.

A musical starring Bayer-Broc in a role intended for a friend lost to suicide, the film places queer-witch costuming and a multi-gendered femme cast into an acting-out of a Chilean musical cycle that describes the death of striking miners at the hands of the state. Finding a distinctly queer element in the transmission of politicized grief across time, the film is deeply moving and direct while refusing to offer any easy gendered reading.

mothertongue.m3u
dir. Rachika S, Neo Sora, 2017
23 mins. United States.

mothertongue.m3u is the musical project of Rachika S and Biki Zoom, who reside in Brooklyn and Tokyo, respectively. It is also an ambient music video co-directed by Rachika S and Neo Sora, consisting of nothing more than four variously-trans bodies on a bed while projections of trains and octopuses spill across their features as they reach out to one another, strip, kiss, reach out, identity formed and collapsing in the gaps between movements. It stars Rovinelli in the mostly nude, and Rachika will perform a central role in Rovinellis next film. Its also quite moving.
