Queer Lion 2012
anche quest'anno Queerframe supporta Queer Lion Award a Venezia
Il Queer Lion Award è un premio collaterale attribuito al "Miglior Film con Tematiche Omosessuali & Queer Culture" alla Mostra Internazionale d'Arte Cinematografica di Venezia
Descrizione
Il Queer Lion Award è il premio attribuito, dal 2007, al "Miglior Film con Tematiche Omosessuali & Queer Culture" presentato alla Mostra Internazionale d'Arte Cinematografica di Venezia. L’idea di un Queer Lion nasce nel 2003 da un’intervista realizzata da Daniel N. Casagrande, presidente dell’associazione culturale CinemArte, per il mensile Venezia News al direttore della Mostra del Cinema Moritz
De Hadeln. In quell’occasione Casagrande chiese a De Hadeln se anche a Venezia, come già 20 anni prima a Berlino, avrebbe permesso la nascita di un premio specifico per la cinematografia gay (il Teddy Bear Award). La risposta fu positiva. Ma l’avvicendamento alla direzione della Mostra, avvenuto l’anno successivo, creò un rallentamento del progetto, rilanciato però dalla volontà dichiarata dal successivo direttore, Marco Müller, di sostenere la creazione di questo nuovo premio collaterale.
Queer Lion is the trophy awarded, from 2007, to the “Best Movie with GLBT Themes & Queer Culture” among those presented during the Venice International Film Festival. The idea of the Queer Lion comes from a 2003 interview, made by president of CinemArte association Daniel N. Casagrande for monthly magazine Venezia News, to then-Director of the Venice Film Festival Moritz De Hadeln. During that, Casagrande asked Mr. De Hadeln if the Venice Film Festival would have welcomed an award meant to specifically honor gay-themed movies, the same way Berlin Film Festival had done 20 years earlier (with Teddy Bear Award). Although the answer was a positive one, the changing of the Festival’s director, the following year, caused a delay in the development of the project, who was greenlighted anyway by the new director Marco Müller, who declared his will to back and sustain the creation of such a new collateral award.
