The film explores identity and intimacy and is set against the bustling <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">backdrop of the urban landscape of Hong Kong. It is only through inhabiting the guise of past <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">lovers that the film\u2019s protagonist, while waiting to find his true self, can feel fully authentic.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This screening is introduced by Oscar von Seth (Centre for Gender Research, Uppsala <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">University and King\u2019s College London), whose research on \u201cqueer waiting\u201d mirrors the film\u2019s <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">themes. von Seth\u2019s current project (funded by the Swedish Research Council) suggests that <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">waiting is an inherently queer experience. Queers wait for a variety of reasons. Historically, <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">we have waited for social and political recognition like marriage equality and anti-<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">discrimination laws. During the AIDS crisis we waited for a cure. Nowadays, following <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">reactionary right-wing political projects in countries around the world, queers wait, with <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">dread, for their hard-won legal rights to be taken away. Also, queers often wait to be seen <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">for who they truly are, a queer form of waiting that echoes throughout Queerpanorama.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Queerpanorama was nominated for the Teddy Award for LGBTQ-themed cinema at the <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Berlinale in 2025. It was also nominated at the Champs-\u00c9lys\u00e9es Film Festival in 2025. Oscar <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">von Seth\u2019s book about queer waiting will be published by Bloomsbury in 2026.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Photo: <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Joelin Quigley Berg<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The lecture is free, but ticket is required for the film screening![\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_row_inner row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; type=&#8221;full_width&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;2257&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; onclick=&#8221;custom_link&#8221; img_link_target=&#8221;_blank&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221; qode_css_animation=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;12px&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;2107&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; onclick=&#8221;custom_link&#8221; img_link_target=&#8221;_blank&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221; qode_css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; link=&#8221;https:\/\/kulturbiljetter.se\/evenemang\/8242\/cinema-queer-festivalpass-29-sep-5-okt-2025\/?lang=en&#8221;][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;12px&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;12px&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;2203&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221; qode_css_animation=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;12px&#8221;][vc_row_inner row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; type=&#8221;full_width&#8221; text_align=&#8221;center&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;1883&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221; qode_css_animation=&#8221;&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; use_row_as_full_screen_section=&#8221;no&#8221; type=&#8221;full_width&#8221; angled_section=&#8221;no&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; background_image_as_pattern=&#8221;without_pattern&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1756374330163{padding-top: 80px !important;padding-right: 10px !important;padding-bottom: 40px !important;padding-left: 10px !important;}&#8221; z_index=&#8221;&#8221; padding_top=&#8221;100&#8243;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;] Lecture: Queer Waiting\/Queerpanorama Thursday Oct 2 \/ 18.00 \/ Slakthuset &#8211; Graffitisthlm &#8211;\u00a0Hallv\u00e4gen 5 Queerpanorama (2025) centers on a young gay man (Arm Anatphikorn)&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":2203,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","portfolio_category":[2],"portfolio_tag":[],"class_list":["post-2225","portfolio_page","type-portfolio_page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","portfolio_category-acts"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cinemaqueer.se\/cq25\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio_page\/2225","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cinemaqueer.se\/cq25\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio_page"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cinemaqueer.se\/cq25\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/portfolio_page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cinemaqueer.se\/cq25\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cinemaqueer.se\/cq25\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2225"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cinemaqueer.se\/cq25\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2203"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cinemaqueer.se\/cq25\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2225"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"portfolio_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cinemaqueer.se\/cq25\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio_category?post=2225"},{"taxonomy":"portfolio_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cinemaqueer.se\/cq25\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio_tag?post=2225"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
