Shropshire Rainbow Film Festival

Founded in 2006 Shropshire Rainbow Film Festival places LGBTQ+ lives at the heart of Shropshire's entertainment programme.

Our aim is to entertain, educate, challenge and change;

Entertain - through an annual programme of film and one off events - we want our audiences to experience the pride of LGBTQ+ folk.

Educate - with stories from all over the globe, we portray a range of experiences, offering insights into other worlds

Challenge - questioning complacency and raising awareness of issues faced by LGBTQ+ folk - not all of our films are comfortable watching.

Change - how others perceive and behave towards lesbians, gay men, bisexual people and those with different sexualities and gender identities and how we feel about ourselves.

We pride ourselves on being a friendly event offering hosting for filmmakers who have been chosen to participate in this years festival.

As well as screening films we also like to foster discussion and debate around a range of LGBTQ+ subjects and interests.

We also encourage filmmakers who attend to participate in Q&A sessions about their work.
