Simulcast Film Screenings: "Sotong" and "Against This Messy World"
April 6
2:00–3:30 p.m.
Chiles Hall 128

In partnership with GETSEA (Graduate Education and Training in Southeast Asia), CAPS (the Center for Asian and Pacific Studies) will host a screening of two short films that explore the challenges facing artistic expression within Malaysia’s complex political, legal, and social landscape.

Sotong follows four fierce local drag queens who were part of the 2022 Halloween party raided by the authorities. One of them, Juan, was arrested for ‘a man dressing up as a woman’. Two years later, they revisit on the fallout of that night as they continue to perform underground and nurture the Malaysian drag scene in all its beauty, joy, and pain.

Against This Messy World is a deeply introspective and visually captivating short documentary that delves into the heart and soul of artistic expression in Malaysia. A personal exploration, narrated by Malaysian artists, this documentary takes viewers on an evocative journey to understand the essence and purpose of being an artist in a world marked by chaos and uncertainty and piece together conversations and unfiltered moments in their lives.

Universities from across North America will come together to watch the films simultaneously, then connect via Zoom with the filmmakers for a post-screening discussion.
