Queer Gaze Shorts

Friday, June 20 | 20:00 | Schikaneder

A glance across the room. A stare held just a second too long. A camera that looks, and looks again. Queer Gaze is a program about vision — how we see, who is seen, and what it means to watch with queer intent.

These films don’t just show queerness; they look queerly. Sometimes playful, sometimes confrontational, their gaze wanders across bodies, objects, and glances, lingering where others might turn away. Desire shimmers beneath surfaces. Meaning flickers at the edges.

Even when queerness isn’t spoken, it’s there — in framing, in rhythm, in the way light hits skin. This is not a fixed point of view, but a way of seeing that slips, slides, and shifts. It reclaims the right to look — and to be looked at differently.
