摘要

SKAM Italia (2018–) proposes an articulated reflection upon media, devices and the production of gendered subjects, visually representing their social and cultural positions. The series highlights the role of affective and emotional bonding, along with erotic desire, as key to the production of identification and subjectivities among teens. Addressing topics such as sex-positivity and the coming-out narrative, SKAM Italia contributes to the national debates on toxic masculinity and gendered violence against women and LGBTQIA+ people. Through an intersectional approach to transfeminism, masculinity studies and queer theory, this chapter will address how the series intertwines popular narratives with a didactic approach and LGBTQIA+ activism to address the construction of teen identities and bonding in contemporary Italy.
