Our mission is to celebrate the best in queer cinema and film art in Liverpool (and beyond). We do monthly screenings at FACT in Liverpool on the last Thursday of every month, special events at the Liverpool Philharmonic Hall and deliver the main festival every October. This year – Liverpool’s European Capital of Culture Year – the festival runs from Saturday 18th October to Saturday 1st November.

The festival has grown from an audience of just 500 people in 2004 to over 2,600 people in 2007. We’ve screened 10 UK Premieres to date and have been able to attract some fabulous guests including Simon Callow, Martin Sherman, Rose Troche, Terence Davies, Rosa von Praunheim and Christopher Hobbs.
