For over 30 years, the queerfilm festivals in Bremen and Bremerhaven have been promoting diversity on screen and queer visibility in everyday life, safe spaces, and fair, inclusive coexistence. Every fall for several days, we invite you to moving stories, motivating projects, and cinematic highlights about queer life from around the globe.
We provide a space for lifestyles beyond heteronormative identities and body images, far away from heterosexual desire, and socially conditioned norms. It is important to us to offer a platform for the BIPoc perspectives and voices affected by any form of discrimination.
The qff was founded in 1994 by the Bremen community cinema and is still taking place on its premises today. As a member of the nationwide umbrella organization Queerscope, the festival is organized on a voluntary basis and is open to anyone who wants to participate. Would you like to get involved or submit a film? Then get in touch with us!
