Bruno Verner and Eli Mejorado introduce 'Tranny Fag' [Bixa Travesti] - a film by Claudia Priscilla, Kiko Goifman (Brazil, 2018).
Tranny Fag depicts the life of Brazilian musician and spoken word artist Linn da Quebrada, a self-proclaimed ‘tranny fag’, who uses her body and music as weapons to fight machismo, transphobia, racism and conformity. Quebrada and performance partner Jup do Bairro speak candidly from their lived experience as queers of colour growing up in the outskirts of São Paulo, and the challenges of breaking into the country’s heteronormative funk scene.
27th March, Wednesday / 2:00 – 4:00 pm
Location: Ben Pimlott Building (BPB) Lecture Theatre
Goldsmiths University
