This now legendary LGBTQIA+ showcase is back with a fresh crop of inspiring, thought- provoking short films and Q&A discussions. This year, these UK premieres have been programmed in association with Rainbow Noir, Manchester.

We have films for all the community, and you’ll have your chance to share your thoughts on these films with engaging discussions afterwards, exploring struggles, joy, empowerment, connection and mental and physical wellbeing.

Q&A and debate in partnership with Rainbow Noir.
