筑位 (SHe)
Directed by Kuo Hsin-ying (Taiwan, 2016) (R21) 35mins
Chiku, a transwoman, and Wei, a cis lesbian, got “legally” married in Taiwan in December 2012. This documentary shows the subtle moments of their daily marriage life, through which the imagined voyeuristic spectacle is turned into everyday actions. It highlights how gender fluidity that cannot be fixed onto a heterosexual framework.

The Revival: Women and the Word
Directed by Sekiya Dorsett (USA, 2016) (R21) 82 mins
In 2011, 50 friends gathered in a small living room in Washington, D.C. for a poetry event called THE REVIVAL. The host, Jade Foster, dreamed of building a safe space where queer women and allies could celebrate being black, women, and carriers of the word. In 2012, the event evolved into a nine-day tour that swept eight cities, touched thousands of lives, and connected five exceptional women.
Women and the Word chronicles the creation of an international salon-styled tour led and supported by women. It tells the story of how Jade Foster recruited a group of five dynamic poets and musicians to become stewards of a movement that builds community among queer women of color, upholds literary arts excellence, and occupies living rooms across the country.
