Queer Cinema And The Evolution of Sexuality Nuances

This exam provides an in-depth analysis of how queer cinema has evolved, focusing on sexuality nuances and the representation of various aspects of queer identities. Theoretical contributions from intersectional studies will also be examined.

The evolution of queer cinema significantly influences cultural discourse and societal understanding of sexuality. By analyzing variations in representation, scholars can critique the broader narratives about inclusivity and diversity in media.

Assessment will focus on the candidate’s ability to critically analyze films through the lens of queer theory and intersectionality. Candidates will demonstrate an understanding of how cinematic representations reflect or challenge societal norms.

Candidates should familiarize themselves with key texts in queer theory as well as seminal films that represent pivotal moments in the evolution of queer cinema.
