Fancy something a little bit different? Join us at the 7th Annual Queer West Film Festival where we’ve made the jump from our annual evening screening to a weekend film festival. From shorts, documentaries and full length features, we aim to showcase the very best of Canadian and international queer cinema from both emerging and established directors. We aim not only to celebrate and entertain but to highlight the issues that continue to affect our community at home and around the world. We’re Toronto’s second largest LGBTQ film festival. Running from August 7-9th, 4-6 PM, The Revue Cinema, 400 Roncesvalles Ave. Toronto Ontario
