Sinopse
Queer Artivism is a tribute to queer film festivals and presents different points of view on the current status of queer film festivals and queer films. It is also a tribute to filmmakers, festival organizers and all the people who usually remain unseen, but without whom queer film festivals and films would not exist. The documentary offers an insight into five different queer film festivals through video footage and interviews with the organizers. With this it gives people who have never been to a queer film festival or who do not have the chance to visit various queer film festivals, an opportunity to experience at least five by going to just one - queer or non-queer - film festival. Throughout the documentary interviewees (festival organizers, filmmakers and musicians) elaborate on the importance of queer film festivals and queer film opening a new space for discussion, reflection and evaluation of queer film festivals and queer film in today’s society.
