SUMMARY:Queer Cinema: Queer Japan
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a screening of the documentary Queer Japan 
 sponsored by the Paulette Curkin Pride Center at SIU.\n\nFilm summary: 
 Trailblazing artists\, activists\, and everyday people from across the 
 spectrum of gender and sexuality defy social norms and dare to live 
 unconventional lives in this kaleidoscopic view of LGBTQ  culture in 
 contemporary Japan. From shiny pride parades to playfully perverse 
 underground parties\, Queer Japan pictures people living brazenly 
 unconventional lives in the sunlight\, the shadows\, and everywhere in 
 between. Dazzling\, iconoclastic drag queen Vivienne Sato peels back the 
 layers of language and identity. Maverick manga artist Gengoroh Tagame 
 tours the world with his unapologetically erotic gay comics. Councilwoman 
 Aya Kamikawa recounts her rocky path to becoming the first transgender 
 elected official in Japan. At legendary kink-positive hentai party 
 Department H\, non-binary performance artist Saeborg uses rubber to create 
 a second skin. Culled from 100  interviews conducted over 3 years in 
 locations across Japan\, Queer Japan features dozens of individuals sharing 
 their experiences in their own words.
