Faculty of Arts
How is sexual desire represented in auteurist and popular cinema? How do the latter present different sexualities? This course will attempt to answer some of these questions by focusing on cinematic representations of individuals who reject to conform themselves to dominant gender and sexual norms. We will study various past and current film trends such as American queer cinema of the 1990s and contemporary gay and lesbian cinema from Europe.
