Queer Spectrum Film Festival

This event has ended

Irish Film Institute, Friday 12th June - Sunday 14th June

Powerful stories and moving images from LGBTQIA+ migrants and queer people of colour around the world.

Welcome to Queer Spectrum Film Festival (QSFF) – a vibrant celebration of queer stories in motion. As Ireland’s first film festival dedicated to LGBTQIA+ people of colour and migrant voices, QSFF foregrounds powerful narratives shaped by migration, desire, nostalgia, intimacy, community, and transformation.

Responding to Ireland’s evolving role as a place of refuge and possibility for LGBTQIA+ migrants from the Global South and East, the festival moves beyond familiar coming-out narratives to centre stories of becoming, resilience, and belonging. Organised by Queer Asian Pride Ireland (QAPI) with the support of Screen Ireland and community partners, QSFF honours those who carry memories of home while courageously imagining new futures.
