Product Overview
Especially in the West, the notion of queerness is no longer new, and this is reflected in the growing number of gay characters on the big screen. But these representations tend to privilege monosexuality – attraction to only one gender – in the process eclipsing the identity of bisexuals. Chloe Benson contends that recent films Submerge and 52...Tuesdays go some way towards redressing this imbalance.
