Sexuality Summer School/ Sediments

Directed by Adrián Silvestre

This event is not included in the HOME Film Pass

Six trans women travel to a small town in León where they will explore unusual landscapes, as well as the ins and outs of their own personalities. Looking for answers about what connects them as a group, they will also learn to deal with their differences.

Sediments is an engaging and fun story about empathy, individuality, and the need to belong. It is an examination of the experiences that forge our identity and tell our life story, and an investigation into how circumstances can intervene to inform who we are today.

This is one of a series of public events that accompany the Sexuality Summer School – a five-day event for postgraduates, organised by the Centre for the Study of Sexuality and Culture (CSSC) at the University of Manchester since 2008 and funded by the University of Manchester School of Arts, Languages and Culture, the Northwest Consortium for Doctoral Training Partnership and Screen; and partnered by HOME, Contact and the British Association of Film, Television and Screen Studies.

The Sexuality Summer School brings postgraduates, researchers and international scholars together with artists and filmmakers to facilitate dialogue and discussions that speak to contemporary debates in queer and feminist sexuality studies, with a particular emphasis on the interdisciplinary study of culture.

In 2023, the Sexuality Summer School explores the theme: (Up) Against Nature.
