Reproduction on Film: 'Monstrosity'
27 February – 21 March 2012 at the Cambridge Arts Picturehouse
Throughout the 20th century, films used the monstrous to explore
concerns about intervention and normality. This second series of
'Reproduction on Film' presents works featuring various artificial and
natural monsters, examining anxieties about science, sex, relationships,
parenthood and social marginalisation. The series is put on by the
Generation to Reproduction programme with funding from the Wellcome Trust.
