Save the date for the Geelong Pride Film Festival

The Geelong Pride Film Festival is back for its third year in 2020 and it’s bigger and prouder than ever.

Because of you, the beautiful people of Geelong who have enthusiastically supported the festival year after year, the festival has upsized once again, now screening more than 30 films across four days at the Pivotonian Cinema and Platform Youth Arts.

Now known as one of the largest regional LGBTIQ+ film festivals in Australia, the Geelong Pride Film Festival aims to bring a diverse range of contemporary and classic, Queer and LGBTQIA themed films to the Geelong community for an all-inclusive film festival.

This year marks an extra special event for the community with the inclusion of the award-winning locally made film Life is Fine. Filmed on location in Geelong, Portarlington and St Leonards, Life is Fine was made by a talented group of students from Deakin University’s school of Film, Television and Animation (written and directed by Daniel Orfali).

Other films include Scottish post-war love story Tell it to the Bees; a cautionary tale of youth, technology and lust in Sequin in a Blue Room; Gay Chorus Deep South documentary; while three collections of short films will celebrate community elders, the best new Australian short films (presented in partnership with MQFF) and a collection of uplifting, positive and humorous films, Happy Endings.

Tickets and multi-film passes to the festival can be purchased at gpff.ferve.tickets
