Masculinity/Femininity (NR)

synopsis

Shot mainly on Super 8mm film, this unique documentary follows filmmakers, academics, gender theorists, and artists presenting their concepts of gender construction in what works as a sort of performance piece rather than as full-on narrative. In fact, the filmmakers themselves question whether the film is scripted or not. Whether through monologue, visual art, performance art, or storytelling, individuals represent the personal experiences they have had with gender-normative societal constructs. Each performance is unique, but somehow viewers will be able to see something of themselves in each one.
