Screening discussion
Queer Science series, Marie Loke Room, University of Groningen
I joined Stelios Irakleous for a panel discussion following the screening of Overcoming (Besire Paralik, 2023), moderated by Karène Sanchez-Summerer. The documentary approaches the division of Cyprus through feminist and queer experiences of crossing borders and resisting militarism. Our conversation explored the relationship between militarisation and gender norms, considering how activism creates possibilities for solidarity across the island’s division.
The event formed part of the Queer Science series, organised by Studium Generale, Usva, the Faculty of Arts and the university’s Centre of Expertise for the Study of LGBTQIA+ Issues.
