AUS 2025 | Animation | Dir: Emma Hough Hobbs | 86 min. | English OV with German subtitles
Followed by a Q&A with director Emma Hobbs in English.
Princess Saira from the queer planet Clitopia is fed up with royal life—and even more so with her ex-girlfriend Kiki, who broke her heart. But when Kiki is kidnapped by the sinister Straight White Maliens, a wild intergalactic rescue mission across the cosmos begins. On board: a chaotic crew, plenty of queer humor, and a fierce determination to defy every norm.
This animated film blends sci-fi parody, queer empowerment, and coming-of-age storytelling, delivered with humor, political edge, and a generous dose of camp. LESBIAN SPACE PRINCESS won the Teddy Award at Berlinale 2025 and is also this year’s recipient of the Queerscope Debut Film Prize.
