Film Screening: Ma Belle, My Beauty | MIT Women Take the Reel Film Festival
About this event:
Join us in screening the film Ma Belle, My Beauty as part of the annual Women Take the Reel Film Festival. This film follows once polyamorous lovers reuniting in the idyllic stretches of rural France. Watch as complex feelings of love and grief transform what once was.
After the film, we’re hosting The Network / La Red (TNLR), a survivor-led, social justice organization that works to end partner abuse in lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, SM, polyamorous, and queer communities. Rooted in anti-oppression principles, their work aims to create a world where all people are free from oppression.
The screening will take place on March 10th, 2022 at 6:30 PM in the MIT Bartos Theater (E15-070). This event is free and open to the public. Masks and vaccinations are required for all event attendees and presenters.
Any visitor who does not have an MIT Kerberos account may use a Tim Ticket QR code to check in to an event that has been registered in MIT’s Tim Tickets system. We will send you the link to Tim Ticket via the email you provide.
This annual film festival is a collaborative effort among Women's and Gender Studies departments involved in the Consortium for Graduate Studies in Gender, Culture, Women, and Sexuality (as well as select institutions/universities aligned with its mission) that feature films directed by women and about issues relating to gender, race, sexuality, class and/or feminism.
The focus is on intellectual investigation of these issues as well as visibility for woman-identifying directors, and so every film is accompanied by a Q&A and discussion with either the film director, producer, relevant organization, or a faculty member from the film screening's host institution.
WOMEN TAKE THE REEL is a FREE roaming film festival SPONSORED BY: MIT Program in Women's and Gender Studies; the Consortium for Graduate Studies in Gender, Culture, Women, and Sexuality; Boston College Women's and Gender Studies Program; Northeastern University Women's, Gender, and Sexuality Studies Program; and Lesley University.
