In this week’s podcast we go to the Melbourne Queer Film Festival. First, we look at Chemsex, the VICE media documentary peering into the “party and play” scene among gay men in the UK. Then we go to the crumbling Euro-chic mansions of Peter Strickland’s critically acclaimed The Duke of Burgundy, a Sapphic, sadomasochistic psychological romance. And finally we experience The New New Queer Cinema of Closet Monster, the much hailed debut from Canadian newcomer Peter Dunn, which combines queer coming-of-age, Cronenbergian body horror and a pet hamster voiced by Isabella Rossellini.
