Nitrate Kisses by Barbara Hammer
📅 Wednesday 15 October🕖 7pm📍 UCL East Community Cinema – One Pool Street
Barbara Hammer’s first feature-length documentary emerges as both love letter and excavation. A pioneer of queer experimental cinema, Hammer threads together the sensual and the political, layering tender portraits of lesbian and gay couples with fragments of our forbidden archives. What unfolds is a haunting visual where desire, allegory, and history collide. Unearthed and reassembled, images long buried, among them scenes from Lot in Sodom (1933), one of the earliest gay films in the U.S., reassert queer presence insisting on a lineage that has always existed, even when hidden.
"I made Nitrate Kisses because lesbians, gays, bisexuals, and transgendered people have been left out of an official history where we exist as a gloss to a heterosexual text. " Barbara Hammer
