Abstract:
Abstract In this article, I offer a reading of Stories of Our Lives (2014), a documentary about the experiences of queer people who live in the city of Nairobi. I am interested in how through the use of the documentary film, the director of the film and the queer people whose lives are represented, articulate new forms of inhabiting and being in the city. This is despite the legal and political hurdles that govern queer liveability in Kenya. I argue that when queer individuals inhabit, move through, move in, occupy or transit through city spaces in their daily habits, practices, rituals and performances, a rubric is generated. As a form, this rubric of ordinary also works both in, and outside of the convention of the documentary film. This rubric not only destabilizes the circulating discourses about queer sexuality, it also crafts a unique queer subjectivity that transcends the physical limitations of the city that enliven forms of queer world making

Abstract:
This article analyses the ways in which Italian filmmaker Simone Cangelosi enacts a queer countervisuality in his documentary films Dalla testa ai piedi (2007) and Una nobile rivoluzione (2014). The theoretical framework traces a genealogy from what has been termed as fe/male gazes up to what can be understood as transgender, queer and feminist gazes. Connections between the performative mode of representation, performative documentary cinema and gender performativity are also established. By means of a close reading of both films and an interview with the filmmaker, this paper argues that queer ways of seeing in documentary cinema cannot only depict existing realities but also put forward other ways of being, becoming and collectively enacting the right to appear.

Abstract:
This article explores the possibilities for activist intervention through documentary media at a time when rhetorics of rights and recognition are increasingly appropriated into nationalist state projects, capitalist expansion, and a Northern hemispheric vision of the “good world.” It asks: How do activist media (makers) respond to the appropriation of liberal values? What language—visual, affective, political—do they use to remain morally and aesthetically legible to a wider public and majoritarian decision-makers while insisting on the need for structural transformation? To work through these questions, the article studies the documentary work of queer-feminist migrant labor activism in East Asia. This work offers particularly valuable insight into a strategy summarized here as sentimental activism: the simultaneous repetition and radical decentering of liberal rights discourse and its sensorium of human legibility. While critiques of sentimental affect as manipulative political instrument are numerous, this article probes under what conditions sentimental aesthetics might refuse to repeat and transform the normative paradigms stipulating who deserves rights and recognition in the first place. In focusing on Lesbian Factory (dir. Susan Chen, 2010), a documentary by the Taiwan International Workers’ Association on the collaborative effort of Taiwanese activists and queer Filipina migrant workers to push for better migrant labor rights, this article tracks how the documentary deploys a sentimental lexicon of rights and recognition for transformative ends: to center queer female migrant workers as historical protagonists in struggles for social justice and transformation and as an inspirational source for radical aesthetics.

Abstract:
Film Quarterly columnist Manuel Betancourt discusses the disorienting experience of watching El puto inolvidable: Vida de Carlos Jáuregui (Carlos Jáuregui: The Unforgettable Fag, 2018), Lucas Santa Ana’s documentary portrait of the Argentine gay rights activist Carlos Jáuregui. He notes how Jáuregui’s decades-old calls to action resonates with the fight for dignity for LGBTQ people chronicled in documentaries like Bixa travesty (Tranny Fag, Kiko Goifman and Claudia Priscilla, 2018), Rainha da Lapa (Queen of Lapa, Theodore Collatos and Carolina Monnerat, 2019), Indianara (Marcelo Barbosa and Aude Chevalier-Beaumel, 2019), and Lemebel (Joanna Reposi Garibaldi, 2019). Watching these documentaries in tandem provides an opportunity to see how different visions of radical queer politics can be incorporated into the spheres of the domestic, the activist, and the aesthetic, thus helping their subjects and audiences to imagine a brighter, more equitable future.

Full text
Abstract:
In this article, I draw on Sara Ahmed’s theorization of “queer phenomenology” to examine the re-orientation of memory discourses in Patricio Guzman’s Nostalgia de la luz (2010). In Nostalgia, the camera produces a metaleptic effect by meticulously framing, in a similar manner to that of a telescope, the background of the official historical narrative: the memory of the natural world. Guzmán’s metaleptic camera teaches us an interconnected “memory of the cosmos.” Yet this re-orientation of memory discourses is articulated from a family home that serves as a gendered orienting device. Following queer phenomenology, I trace the ways in which the documentary’s innovative treatment of memory is hindered by the heteropatriarchal orientation of the family home. I argue that, in Nostalgia, the memory of the heterosexual male subject is the one that is transmitted vertically within the heteropatriarchal family. In doing so, the documentary reproduces the familial and linear tropes that have dominated discourses of intergenerational memory transmission. Queer phenomenology warns us that Guzman’s call to “vivir en el frágil tiempo presente” is not merely a question of having or lacking memory. Memory is a matter of following, and returning, specific lines of orientation, at the expense of others.

Abstract:
Includes bibliographical references.
This dissertation investigates representations of Black South African lesbians in contemporary local documentary films. In order to do so, the author focuses on two films: Breaking out of the Box (dir. Zethu Matebeni and S’bu Kheswa, 2011) and Difficult Love (dir. Zanele Muholi and Peter Goldsmid, 2010). These films are analysed in the light of a number of questions regarding the depiction of Queer Black women, including: the frequency and qualities of such representations, in which kinds of films such identities are represented, which techniques such films utilise, and which themes are addressed. One issue addressed in both films is the matter of so-called “corrective” rape and this dissertation examines the complexity of depicting this specific theme. Because the subject matter is related to a number of distinct yet intersecting subjects, resources from a variety of fields are utilised – including, but not limited to, Queer theory in general and research on Queer Film specifically, documentary film theory, and historical studies of South African cinema. The films are analysed within the context of the socio-political environments in which they were created as well as in relation to theoretical contexts relating to representation in film and other media. Findings indicate that the representation of Black South African lesbians has grown in recent local documentary films. A significant portion of these films utilise personal approaches to documentary filmmaking, which proves particularly suitable for depicting the sensitive and personal nature of the subject matter. The films challenge prevailing beliefs about homosexuality within the African context and defy notions of essentialism in favour of highlighting diversity. Juxtaposed with the growth in documentary film representation, Queer female representation in local fiction film is negligible. Depictions of Queer male identities are comparatively more widespread, yet even these still tend to rely on negative or onedimensional stereotypes. On a more encouraging note, there appears to be an increase in representation of Queer Black South African documentary filmmakers, which constitutes an increase in the variety of voices represented in a previously limited (and limiting) film industry. These filmmakers’ work also opens interesting questions around representation and selfrepresentation.

Abstract:
This research is motivated by the increased output of Queer documentary film in France and Italy from 2000 onwards, an increase which is seen to form part of a wider committed cinema. The impetus comes from a need to recognise the contribution of this output in marking a shift away from the categorisation of representations within set frameworks and identities to the deployment of the intricacies of documentary performance in creating an alternative and more complex sense of place and identity. In considering this shift I develop the notion of the lieu factice, which I offer as an original way of approaching the complexities of both the process of documentary representation and the context in which this takes place in France and Italy where ‘difference’ is generally subsumed in universal principles. The lieu factice is a temporary site of agency and resistance which allows identity and place to be explored in different ways, reflecting the position of Queer lives in contexts where the universal predominates and the interplay between visibility and invisibility is a complex phenomenon. As I progress through each chapter, providing detailed analysis of the selected films, I appropriate a range of Queer theoretical concepts to support my notion, which draws on the work of Judith Butler, Michel Foucault, Leo Bersani and Nicholas de Villiers. The lieu factice is shaped by a range of representational and spatial dynamics in the foregrounding of ‘difference’ and is marked by shifts between local, national, and global spaces, both physical and imagined. The notion of ‘Queer documentary’ in France and Italy is seen to defy definition and centres on a notable challenge to the hegemony of the family as a heteronormative space within national narratives.

Abstract:
The aim of my dissertation is to analyze the documentary Paris is Burning both in socio-political and linguistic terms. Paris is Burning is a 1991 documentary that sheds light on the lives of New York’s African American and Latinx drag queens, their rituals and their iconic language. I chose Paris is Burning because the community it depicts is an incredible example of how gender, class and race come together, in very complex ways, to create Queer identities. With my work I intend to find an answer to the following questions: how can we define a group that does not fit into society’s standard? And how can such group define itself? How are Queer people limited by heteronormative language and society? To answer, first I looked into the history of drag and of the Harlem’s ball circuit, the backdrop of the documentary. For the second chapter, I explored Queer Theory, in particular the work of Judith Butler, and sociolinguistics, to determine which are the best tools and guidelines to analyze a community as complicated as that of Paris is Burning. For the last chapter I used as reference Lakoff’s women’s language (1975), African American Vernacular English and elements of gay subculture to do my own analysis of the language used by the documentary’s queens.

Through a queer perspective, this study aims to investigate the representations of LGBT characters in documentaries produced in southern Brazil between 2000 and 2014. By understanding sexuality as a historical device regulation and social order, we discussed how these films appear the representations of gender, body and sexuality of "abject subject" and how to take or not a counteraesthetics and resistance to sexed and gendered norms. Representations as anchors narratives contribute to understanding the processes of imagining and recognize each other, because every film produces representations submitted to the view of a self enunciator, that is, as others see us and design in the film portraits. Postulate that horizon, the intention of this work unfolds in: (1) investigate the ethical stances of the works to articulate the film universe, leading the meanings given to LGBT characters; (2) analyze how the technical and stylistic devices used in the documentary contribute or not to the subversions of discriminatory film portraits; and (3) understand what are the representations that this movie has figured to establish (and down) his speech and queer aesthetics. The choice of the timeline is justified, first, by demarcating the post resumption of Brazilian cinema (NAGIB, 2002). Second, the emergence of a more committed national films with various representations of LGBT people (GARCIA, 2012). Third, it is from the year 2002 there is a greater heating of the national documentary production (Maruno, 2008). And fourth, the configuration of the LGBT movement in the last decade, which struggle for media spaces - including the cinema to give social existence to his speeches against hegemonic (SIMÕES, FACHINI, 2009). 19 mapped movies, analysis procedures underlie the prior literature and the analysis method filmic representation of LGBT characters that make up the filmic scenarios. In the end, it was possible to infer that, in general, the mapped films and analyzed share of an organic commitment to represent these subjects differently, developing an alternative and opposed to negative and stereotypical representations speech, humanizing the subjects that were out of a possible "humanity." Representing these oppositions and resistances to the discourses of prejudiced order, the filmic representations advance, at times, for upgrades and (re) signification of a place that would serve only to reinforce a control and exclusion strategy. However, to constantly seek to oppose the discourses of prejudiced order, some of these movies fall into the trap of reframing representations of these people characters in hegemonic terms, valuing speeches and aesthetic sanitized and aseptic rather reinvent and circumvent the very discursive regime which elects and defines how LGBT should behave to achieve a status of "viable life". While others bet on an identity reification and some open onto views of homosexuality, travestilidade, transsexuality or bisexuality as real critical land deconstruction of sex / gender, representing these subjects through ethnic and identity model. However, there are those films that are not just concerned with opposing the stereotyped portraits, to draw up a positive image of LGBT or reduce your creativity to an identity reification. In addition, betting on a resistance representation is also counterproductive contrasexual and queer.
Através de uma perspectiva queer, este estudo tem por objetivo investigar as representações das personagens LGBT nos documentários produzidos na região Sul do Brasil, entre 2000 e 2014. Ao compreender a sexualidade como um dispositivo histórico de regulação e ordem social, problematizamos como estes filmes figuram as representações de gênero, corpo e sexualidades dos sujeitos abjetos e como assumem ou não uma estética contraprodutiva e de resistência as normas sexuadas e generificadas. As representações, enquanto âncoras narrativas, contribuem para compreender os processos de imaginar e reconhecer o outro, pois todo filme produz representações submetidas ao ponto de vista de um eu enunciador, isto é, como o outro nos vê e nos projeta em retratos fílmicos. Postulado esse horizonte, a intenção desse trabalho se desdobra em: (1) investigar as posturas éticas das obras para articular o universo fílmico, conduzindo as significações dadas às personagens LGBT; (2) analisar como os dispositivos técnicos e estilísticos utilizados no documentário contribuem ou não para as subversões de retratos fílmicos discriminatórios; e (3) compreender quais são as representações que este cinema tem figurado para estabelecer (e se estabelece) seu discurso e estética queer. A escolha do espaço temporal justifica-se, primeiramente, por demarcar a pós retomada do cinema brasileiro (NAGIB, 2002). Em segundo lugar, pelo despontar de um maior número de filmes nacionais comprometidos com representações mais diversas das pessoas LGBT (GARCIA, 2012). Em terceiro lugar, é a partir do ano de 2002 que há um maior aquecimento da produção de documentários nacionais (MARUNO, 2008). E em quarto lugar, pela configuração do movimento LGBT nesta última década, o qual luta por espaços midiáticos entre eles o cinema para dar existência social aos seus discursos contra-hegemônicos (SIMÕES; FACHINI, 2009). Com 19 filmes mapeados, os procedimentos de análise perpassam pela pesquisa bibliográfica prévia e pelo método de análise fílmica da representação das personagens LGBT que compõe os enredos fílmicos. Ao final, pôde-se aferir que, de modo geral, os filmes mapeados e analisados compartilham de um comprometimento orgânico em representar esses sujeitos de maneira diversa, elaborando um discurso alternativo e de contraposição às representações negativas e estereotipadas, humanizando os sujeitos que antes estavam fora de uma humanidade possível . Ao representar estas contraposições e resistências aos discursos de ordem preconceituosa, as representações fílmicas avançam, em alguns momentos, para atualizações e (re)significações de um lugar que serviria apenas para reforçar uma estratégia de controle e exclusão. No entanto, ao buscar constantemente se opor aos discursos de ordem preconceituosa, alguns desses filmes recaem na armadilha de ressignificar as representações dessas pessoas personagens em termos hegemônicos, valorizando discursos e estéticas higienizadas e assépticas (em vez reinventar e burlar o próprio regime discursivo que elege e define como as LGBT devem se comportar para alcançarem um status de vida viável ). Já outros apostam em uma reificação identitária e pouco se abrem para visões da homossexualidade, travestilidade, transexualidade ou bissexualidade como reais terrenos críticos de desconstrução do sexo/gênero, representando estes sujeitos através de um modelo étnico e identitário. No entanto, há aqueles filmes que não estão preocupados apenas em se opor aos retratos estereotipados, em elaborar uma representação positiva das LGBT ou reduzir sua criatividade a uma reificação identitária. Para além disso, apostam em uma representação de resistência que também é contraprodutiva, contrassexual e queer.

Esta dissertação analisa dois documentários - "Generonautas, jornada por identidades mutantes" (Monika Treut, 1999) e "De gravata e unha vermelha" (Miriam Chnaiderman, 2014) - tendo o objetivo de discutir como a identidade de gênero e a sexualidade são expressas nessas obras. Balizam este estudo a concepção de identidade como em contínua transformação e, gênero, como construção histórica, cultural e política. Sustentam, especialmente, tal olhar, os estudos feministas e a teoria queer, que defende a superação da padronização binária heterossexual/homossexual. O trabalho avalia os diferentes pontos de vista dos documentários, considerando os momentos históricos de suas produções. No filme de Treut, destacamos o aspecto militante da obra ao abordar o cotidiano de uma comunidade de trasgêneros residentes em São Francisco (EUA), tendo a cidade um papel importante na causa em defesa dos corpos abjetos. Já no filme de Chnaiderman, buscamos entender como se apresenta a sexualidade e o gênero em sua multiplicidade, tendo a vestimenta como principal elemento de transgressão. Isto posto, enumeramos algumas indagações que atravessam esta pesquisa: como se constroem os diferentes ativismos nas duas produções, mantendo-se a perspectiva de uma militância desenhada pelas organizações LGBT (Lésbica, gay, bissexual e trans) e tendo em vista a construção e consolidação de direitos sociais para este grupo ao longo dos quinze anos, tempo de espaço entre as produções? Qual a articulação - seja em maior ou menor grau - com o cotidiano, no sentido de se reconhecer neste "espaço de vivência e convivência", uma trilha para a consolidação dos propósitos do ativismo? Quais as marcas temporais específicas dos filmes que dialogam com a teoria queer? Por fim, que questões éticas suscitam tais obras quando expõem indivíduos historicamente discriminados? Buscar responder a estas e outras questões próximas, significa, para esta pesquisa, apontar para a necessidade do rompimento da invisibilidade que ainda marca quem optou pela transexualidade e/ou outras formas de identidade sexual e de gênero e, ao mesmo tempo, reconhecer na mídia, mais especificamente no audiovisual de não-ficção, um locus potente e significativo no cenário da comunicação contemporânea
This dissertation analyses two documentaries - "Gendernauts, a march towards changing identities" (Monika Treut, 1999) and "Wearing necktie and red nail" (Miriam Chnaiderman, 2014) - within the scope of discussing how identity of gender and sexuality are uttered in these works. This study is delimited on a conception of identity as a continuing change as well as the gender as a historical, cultural and political construction. Such view is supported particularly by both the feminist studies and the queer theory which stands up for the overcoming of the binary heterosexual/homosexual standardization. The work considers the different points of view of the documentaries, taking into consideration historical moments of their production. In Treut´s movie we highlight the militant aspect of the work when dealing with everyday life of a community of transgenders who live in San Francisco (USA), having this city an important role in the cause that stands up for the abject bodies. However in Chnaiderman movie, we sought to understand how sexuality and gender present themselves in their multiplicity, showing attire as the main element of transgression. Therefore, we numbered some inquiries which go through this research: how these different activisms are built in the two productions, keeping the perspective of a militancy designed by the LGBT (Lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender) organizations, having in vieview the construction and consolidation of social rights for this group over fifteen years, the gap between the two productions? Which articulation - be it to a greater or lesser degree - with everyday life, towards recognizing in this "space of experience and contact" a path for the consolidation of the purposes of the activism? What are the particular time marks of the movies that express the queer theory in dialogue? Eventually, what ethical issues raise such works when they expose individuals historically prejudiced? Seeking to answer to these and other close questions means for this research to lead to the need of breaking out the invisibility which still leaves marks on those who have opted for transsexualism and/or other forms of sexual and gender identity and, at the same time, recognize through the media, most particularly through the nonfiction audiovisual, a powerful and significant locus in the scenery of the contemporaneous communication

This dissertation explores the reflexive and performative practices found in Mocha Jean Herrup's documentary work, POM, LESBIANFILM, and A FEW GOOD DYKES. By exploiting realism's failure to ever fully represent, reflexive and performative techniques enable a queer discourse. These techniques create 1) a parodic premise that calls attention to the disjunction between documentary's legitimizing conventions and queer as a viable subject, 2) a subjectification of the insider-outsider that troubles distinctions between the audience and the subject and the filmmaker and the subject, and 3) enables the embodied knowledge of queer subjectivity to emerge.

Abstract:
Queer Representations in Chinese-language Film and the Cultural Landscape provides a cultural history of queer representations in Chinese-language film and media, negotiated by locally produced knowledge, local cultural agency, and lived histories. Incorporating a wide range of materials in both English and Chinese, this interdisciplinary project investigates the processes through which Chinese tongzhi/queer imaginaries are articulated, focusing on four main themes: the Chinese familial system, Chinese opera, camp aesthetic, and documentary impulse. Chao’s discursive analysis is rooted in and advances genealogical inquiries: a non-essentialist intervention into the "Chinese" idea of filial piety, a transcultural perspective on the contested genre of film melodrama, a historical investigation of the local articulations of mass camp and gay camp, and a transnational inquiry into the different formats of documentary. This book is a must for anyone exploring the cultural history of Chinese tongzhi/queer through the lens of transcultural media.
