In the fourth and final short film in our Bad Le****ns series, the team talk about the perceived silence around violence in the q***r community, and what might happen when we are willing to examine it. About the shifting roles we play as witness, perpetrator and victim, and sitting in the ambiguity of that.
If you’re in Edinburgh for this month, you can catch our next work-in-progress showing of Bad Le****ns at on 29 + 30 August.
Tickets available at the link in bio.

It is trying, attempting to talk about what I perceive to be a silence in the le***an archive. Where there is this sort of messy, sticky thing around violence that happens from women, to women, to q***r people, to other trans people.
What happens when we are willing to examine the violences we do to each other in our community? And I’m specifically trying to think about that in a world that is already so violent.
There are moments when it’s unclear who is harming who, who is witnessing, who is seeding the next act of violence or harm or love or intimacy or care. And I think there’s something about sitting with and understanding the ambiguity, but also sitting with the moments of clarity.
