Abstract

The article discusses the anthropomorphic strategies of presenting sex lives of non-human creatures in the cinematic works of Jean Painlevé (1902–1989). Regarding queer studies, I closely analyse the Love life of the octopus (1965), Sea horse (1934), Acera or the witches dance (1972). These films enable the formulation of the concepts of sex and sexuality that surpass the frames of anthropocentric, reprosexual heterorealism. I also discuss the theory of sexuality in the works of Deleuze and Guattari, indicating their concepts as productive to articulate the notions of sex and sexuality that are inclusive to the non-human.
