OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Rainbow Rishta, which streams on Amazon Prime, is an English-language docuseries about queer life and love in India. The series explores the complexities of queer communities’ relationship to the places where they live, their families and wider communities, and of course their queer identities. The docuseries has been nominated for the GLAAD Media Awards, and been widely received with critical appreciation. Jaydeep Sarkar is a queer filmmaker who has worked in cinema, television and documentary filmmaking. At the event, Jaydeep will be in conversation with Sneha Krishnan (School of Geography and the Environment) to discuss not only his journey in making the film but also how non-metropolitan India is often a place for non-normative sexualities that escape dominant narratives about queer life in India.
