On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, 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.
