New This Week: On Swift Horses and The Legend of Ochi.

Wednesday Feb 1

Filmmaker John Greyson will be in attendance for a Q&A.

This event is hosted by Queen’s University’s Department of Film and Media with the support of the Brockington Visitorship.

The Screen Cultures and Curatorial Studies (SCCS) Screening Series is pleased to present John Greyson’s newest feature film, Photobooth, an agitprop opera odyssey featuring the ghost of Jean Genet, Toronto’s gay penguins, and the activist work of queer folk fighting for Palestinian liberation. Using fragmented formal and narrative structures, Grayson weaves a mindbending tapestry of ideas, histories, emotions and potentials.

John Greyson is Canadian director, activist, and artist. His work has screened locally and internationally. His recent short, International Dawn Chorus Day received the Golden Bear for Best Short Film at the Berlinale in 2021. John teaches film at York University in Toronto.
