Eurovision – It's Oh So Queer!

This special with film screenings, a talk and a performance is devoted to the gay topic par excellence: the Eurovision Song Contest. The ESC - or “Grand Prix de la Chanson” as it was called until 1991 – stands for the marketing of gay music pleasures and hereby has formed specific stereotypes, which will be examined in this special. Along with two documentaries, the scientific analysis of queerness and mainstream culture by Dr. Peter Rehberg, professor of German Literature and Queer Studies in Austin, Texas, will be central to this programme. Two performances by the Eurovision performer Eurofalsh from Israel will give it a finishing touch.
