Cinema Mentiré, in collaboration with TGirlsOnFilm, presents Salome, Salome, Salome bringing together three radically different queer incarnations of the biblical princess across Brazil, Mexico and the UK.

The season opens at The Garden Cinema with the UK premiere of the unashamed sci-fi melodrama rom-com Salome (2024) by André Antônio, part of Surto & Deslumbramento, the Brazilian leading queer film collective of the last decade, in a lush, camp creation that relocates the legend to a working-class neighbourhood in the 21st century. Followed by Salome’s Last Dance (1988) by British enfant terrible Ken Russell at the Rio Cinema, a delirious and delicious re-enactment of Wilde’s forbidden play. It concludes at The Garden Cinema with the dreamlike Salome (1976) of textures, sensations and veils by Paris-based Mexican artist Teo Hernández.
