Portrait of Eve Trailers

What is a queer body in theological context? What can queer Eva do to free herself from the endless androcentric and patriarchal narratives? These questions can be answered by queer theologian Marcella Althaus-Reid:” Queer theology is the one who confesses distance from home without even knowing where home is for her, rejecting all representations of herself or her own representations of others that deny the reality of exile as a place to be. A theology that can only participate in the contiguous processes of representation of people in transit, nomadic subjects who follow their own deep desire for different forms of purity and holiness, and find grace especially in the lands inhabited by sexual exile.” Eve thus becomes here an uneven recomposition, embracing her figurative repetitions to the point of vacuity, through ecstasy, so it is not possible to direct oneself to the body without ruptures, discontinuities, inconsistencies, contradictions

Reviews
Perry Kate Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
Gurlyndrobb While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
Sammy-Jo Cervantes There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.
