    No Gravity

    Silvia CASALINO 2011 France & Germany Documentary color 60min French, English HDCam
    Space engineer Silvia Casalino dreams to be an astronaut since childhood. When her application is rejected, she decides to figure out what position a female astronaut is among males. She explores the
    female icons in history of astronomy and cyber culture. No Gravity is a film between science and fiction, remixed by queer-feminist minds.
