BFI | D.E.B.S. 20th Anniversary panel discussion | BFI Q&A @britishfilminstitute | Uploaded 1 month ago | Updated 2 hours ago
A panel celebrating the 20th anniversary of Angela Robinson's sapphic spy comedy D.E.B.S.

This panel explores the nuances of queer and queer coded villains in film, dissecting the queer community’s fascination with morally skewed characters as camp, and looking at how villainy can often be claimed as ‘iconic’ in LGBTQIA+ spaces.

Hosted by event co-programmer Lilia Pavin-Franks (she/her) and featuring writer-curator Siavash Minoukadeh (he/they) and writer-curator Cici Peng (she/her).

Watch an interview with D.E.B.S. director Angela Robinson, live on the BFI's YouTube channel from 14:00 on 6th September 2024: youtu.be/EG5CSOq7bdY
