The Cinema Museum, London

Wotever DIY Film Festival Presents Intersexion (2012)

Thu 8 Sep 2016 @ 19:30 · Events

Intersexion‘The first question any new parent asks… “Is it a boy or a girl?”

What if it’s neither?’

Grant Lahood’s 2012 groundbreaking documentary about the intersex community blew audiences away at the 2013 London Lesbian and Gay Film Festival, and this wonderful film has lost none of its freshness and urgency.

With a global span, the film introduces us to a wide range of people, each with their own unique journey and story to tell. Alongside the intensely personal stories is an often coruscating critique of the prevailing medical approach to intersex individuals and a passionate demand to be heard.

Along with Mani Mitchell, New Zealand’s first ‘out’ intersex person, Lahood explores the myths, realities, challenges and joys of living outside the gender binary.

The screening will be followed by a Q&A with Valentino Vecchietti, intersex activist, lesbian, writer, and independent academic

This screening forms part of our Film London-sponsored Community Voices in Full programme.

Access: BSL interpretation of intro and Q&A, audio visual description. The Cinema Museum is wheelchair accessible. We can arrange for disabled parking directly outside the venue. For this and all other specific needs please contact woteverfilm@gmail.com.
