Bjarne Melgaard’s filmed interview with gay theoretician and cultural critic Leo Bersani emerged from a seminar for art students given last year by Melgaard and Bersani at the University Iuav of Venice. The two raise such questions as: What is the nature of gay activism today? Is the militancy advocated by Melgaard a viable course of action? Has the idea of gay ideology become obsolete? Might it be possible to be both for and against gay marriage? Originally shown as part of the 2011 Venice Biennale, the film here receives its New York premiere.
