Prepare for a mad March!!
London Lesbian & Gay Film Festival line-up unveiled
The 24th London Lesbian and Gay Film Festival launches on 17th March. The LLGFF is brought to you by the British Film Institute and they have been working all year round to offer you the best of LGBT cinema.
Of the 75 feature length films and documentaries screening at the LLGFF, an impressive number have won awards at other international festivals, including Brotherhood, Nicolo Donatto’s gripping tale of gays in the neo-Nazi movement and Ander, Roberto Castón’s portrayal of gay rural life in the Basque country.
LGBT Africa explores the difficult situation LGBT people face in parts of Africa, where homosexuality is outlawed and in many instances carries the death penalty.
With a retrospective of some of her most successful and critically acclaimed films including Working Girls, Dance, Girl, Dance, Craig’s Wife and The Wild Party, we celebrate Dorothy Arzner, a prolific director in Hollywood during the 1920s and 30s.
Returning for a second year, The Campaign for Homosexual Equality present CHE Film Prize, which offers a £2,000 prize to the film which best reflects the values and objectives of CHE in its fight for social justice.
All this plus short films, club nights, events and networking opportunities over the course of two weeks make the 24th BFI London Lesbian & Gay Film Festival an indispensable highlight in the queer cultural calendar.
