19th Annual International Queer Women of Color Film Festival (2023)

The 19th anniversary Film Festival will premiere 30 films in 6 screenings. From the lush sageness of memory, movement, and Indigenous traditions of environmental stewardship, to the transformation of grief, and the mycorrhizal relationships between love, collective care, and disability justice, the Festival Focus “Forever Rooted” liberates spores of sovereignty and survivance. All films are Subtitled for Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing and Audio Described for the Blind and Low Vision, and ASL interpretation will be provided along with many other forms of accessibility.

Presented by the Queer Women of Color Media Arts Project (QWOCMAP).
