SEASON: PRIDE
CINEMA BEYOND THE BINARY
A curated series celebrating the complexity, resilience, and radical creativity of queer lives around the world. Spanning decades and continents, the season centres voices that challenge convention, reclaim space, and reimagine identity beyond binaries.
Presented in the lead-up to Pride London, Queer Cognition brings together groundbreaking narratives and documentaries that resist erasure and ignite cultural memory, exploring queerness as a living, evolving force, rooted in history and defined by collective creativity.
Programme supported by Film Hub London, managed by Film London. Proud to be a partner of the BFI Film Network, funded by the National Lottery www.filmlondon.org.uk/filmhub.
SCREENING:
I’M YOUR VENUS
Venus Xtravaganza emerged as a global trans icon after being featured as a glamorous “ball walker” in the groundbreaking 1991 documentary Paris Is Burning. Venus was murdered before that film’s release, and now, decades later, I’M YOUR VENUS picks up a trail gone cold as her two families—biological and ballroom—come together to honour her legacy, seek answers about her killing, and in the process find unexpected common ground.
