ABSTRACT Margarita with a Straw is an Indian movie about a queer/disabled woman exploring her sexuality. The article uses textual analysis with a discursive formation approach to analyze how the protagonist’s queer/disabled identity is constituted vis-à-vis intimate partnerships alongside the promotion of neoliberal values. One relationship with an able-bodied white man takes place within a caregiving dynamic that challenges her independence. The other relationship with a disabled South Asian woman creates an interdependence that bifurcates their identities as disabled-and-queer. The article argues that the promotion of neoliberal values in the context of queer/disability is about independence from dependence on sociopolitical systems.

秸秆玛格丽塔的新自由主义价值观与同志/残疾

摘要玛格丽塔(Margarita)和一根稻草是一部印度电影,讲述了一个酷儿/残疾妇女探索其性行为的故事。本文使用文本分析和话语形成方法来分析主角的同志/残障者身份是如何与亲密伙伴关系以及新自由主义价值观的发展相对应的。与一个身体强壮的白人的关系是在照顾她的独立性的看护动态中发生的。与一名残疾的南亚妇女的另一种关系创造了一种相互依存关系,使她们的身份被分为残疾与酷儿。文章认为,在酷儿/残疾背景下促进新自由主义价值观是关于独立于对社会政治制度的依赖。
