Proposing a radical vision of cinema's queer globalism, Karl
Schoonover and Rosalind Galt explore how queer filmmaking
intersects with international sexual cultures, geopolitics, and
aesthetics to disrupt dominant modes of world making. Whether in
its exploration of queer cinematic temporality, the paradox of the
queer popular, or the deviant ecologies of the queer pastoral,
Schoonover and Galt reimagine the scope of queer film studies. The
authors move beyond the gay art cinema canon to consider a broad
range of films from Chinese lesbian drama and Swedish genderqueer
documentary to Bangladeshi melodrama and Bolivian activist video.
Schoonover and Galt make a case for the centrality of queerness in
cinema and trace how queer cinema circulates around the
globe-institutionally via film festivals, online consumption, and
human rights campaigns, but also affectively in the production of a
queer sensorium. In this account, cinema creates a uniquely potent
mode of queer worldliness, one that disrupts normative ways of
being in the world and forges revised modes of belonging.
