When Love Broke the Law (CTBA) + Q&A

Celebrate desire, protest and the power of love this Valentine’s Day.

Event/ This screening will be followed by a Q&A with Berwyn Rowlands (Iris Prize, Festival Director) and Emily Sargent (Director, Jackie). 

From forbidden kisses to real-life revolution, this double-bill of short films shows that love has always been our greatest act of defiance.

In Two People Exchanging Saliva, affection itself is a crime - and yet, someone dares to kiss. In Jackie, the fearless story of a pioneering lesbian activist reminds us that real change begins with small acts of courage. 
Together, these films celebrate desire, protest, and the power of those who refused to live by anyone else’s rules.

Screening in this programme:

Two People Exchanging Saliva (Dirs. Natalie Musteata & Alexandre Singh) - In a farcical world where kissing is punishable by death, a personal shopper threatens the status quo.

Jackie (Dir. Emily Sargent) - A documentary about the life of Jackie Forster; a groundbreaking, outrageous - and largely unknown - LGBT+ rights campaigner. 

 

This event will begin at the advertised time with no ads or trailers.
