The LGBTQ+ Film Series

Representation matters. In the ongoing fight for LGBTQ+ justice, visibility is a powerful tool for shattering stigmas, changing perceptions and fostering acceptance. The world of cinema has long served an important role in this pursuit through representation, affirming lives, making the invisible visible, and inviting audiences into histories and experiences beyond their own.

Curated by Catherine Ford, Alessandra Fanelli and Adrianna Gober, The LGBTQ Film Series aims to explore and uplift a wide and diverse scope of LGBTQ+ issues and stories by highlighting selections from the rich, enduring history of queer cinema. The series will showcase comedies, dramas, documentaries, mainstream and independent as well as international films both new and old, spotlighting queer filmmakers, screenwriters, actors and themes.
