Department of English, Jadavpur University and

The School of Culture and Creative Arts, University of Glasgow present

 

A One-Day Symposium (funded by Carnegie Trust Research Incentive Grant)

 

Queer Cinema & Festivals in India: Production, Circulation & Politics

 

12 December 2023

Venue: Department of English, Jadavpur University Call for Papers:

 

Queer rights movements and queer activism are facing renewed threats, 

including the rolling back of previously won rights for LGBTQ+ 

communities in some parts of the world. We want to explore how film and 

film festivals, two areas of cultural and economic activity recognised 

as important the world over, can support queer rights and activism. The 

symposium will offer conceptual advances and practical insights on 

community organising and activism that are crucial for queer and human 

rights movements internationally.

 

 

This one-day symposium will attempt to explore how cinema and film 

festivals have become critical sites for charting the dynamics of the 

public sphere in contemporary India. In particular, how organising and 

curating film festivals, securing funding for independent queer films, 

and distribution, circulation and exhibition of the same, are integral 

to the discourses of queer cultural production, queer activism and 

largely the queer rights movement in India.

 

 

We welcome submissions from established academics, independent scholars 

and graduate students worldwide.

 

 

Please fill out the abstract submission form (Google Forms) which is 

available online at

sv88uEw/viewform latest by November 20, 2023. Acceptances will be sent 

out by the end of November. A selection of papers accepted for the 

symposium will be published as a journal special issue.

 

 

The symposium is jointly organised by the Department of English, 

Jadavpur University & the School of Culture and Creative Arts, 

University of Glasgow. This is funded by a Carnegie Trust Research 

Incentive Grant (RIG012517). The one-day symposium will be held at 

Jadavpur University on 12th December 2024. We will have some limited 

opportunity for hybrid/online presentations.
