Supported Projects
As part of Queer Screen’s mission statement “Inspire and engage people by sharing queer stories”, we are happy to support LGBTIQ filmmakers projects by providing exposure on our website “Supported Projects” and social media presence. In order to maximise the impact of this initiative, Queer Screen reserves the right to evaluate each submission and to decide if including it in our “Support Projects” webpage.
