SF Queer Film Festival

Friday, 22 August 2025 until Sunday, 24 August 2025

Our Festival is a showcase for innovative and ground-breaking movies by queer filmmakers. We are seeking narrative, documentary, experimental, animated films and web series.

Unlike the established LGBTQI+ film festivals, we do not adhere to the status quo and offer an alternate platform for out-of-the-box thinkers and content creators.

We do not disqualify films based on premiere status or date of completion. We select films on merit and not based on the names attached to the project. This festival is created by filmmakers to provide opportunities to queer filmmakers who are over-looked by the mainstream LGBTQI+ festivals.
