Divine Queer Film Festival

Divine Queer Film Festival (DQFF - www.divinequeer.it) is an independent film festival rooted in the Queer scene which explores the ever-changing topics of gender, diversabilities and migration. What inspired the first ever Divine is using the power of cinema to break down stereotypes, prejudices, taboos and fears.

Divine has an international vision and plans to project films, documentaries and fictional works from all over the world with the cult, feature film and short film categories.

With this aim, in 2023, Divine will focus, again, on three topics related to diversabilities, gender/transgener and migrants. The new edition will be dedicated to Audre Lorde (1934 - 1992), an African-American writer, womanist, radical feminist, professor, and civil rights activist. She was a self-described "black, lesbian, mother, warrior, poet," who "dedicated both her life and her creative talent to confronting and addressing injustices of racism, sexism, classism, and homophobia thus for us is an attribute to improve the "divine" perspective.

DQFF 2023, will take place in, Barriera di Milano, the suburban headquarter of the city of Torino, exactly in Laboratori di Via Baltea (www.viabaltea.it), which is a young multicultural center. The new edition will be in the days of 14-15-16 of Aprile. The Festival venue is wheelchair-friendly and all screenings will be subtitled to ensure deaf and hearing audiences alike can enjoy them.
