Lesflicks Xmas Film Festival

Lesflicks Xmas Film Festival

Following the success of our first Xmas Film Festival, Lesflicks is celebrating the end of 2022 by putting on a series of short films at an event.

We are seeking up to 30 short films of up to 30 minutes in length with a lesbian or bisexual lead, storyline or supporting character. Films do not have to have a Christmas theme, although priority will be given to these.

The films will be available to watch between 19 December 2022 and 1 January 2023, including by an online event to discuss these films and the representation of lesbian & bisexual women in the media on Monday 26 December 2022.

Film submissions are accepted by cis and trans lesbian, bisexual and heterosexual female filmmakers whose film shows women loving women on screen, either a lesbian or bisexual storyline; or that portrays a lesbian or bisexual character as a strong supporting character. 

- Selected films are provided with laurels
- All eligible films that are shortlisted or selected will be eligible to receive royalties for views should the film be placed on the Lesflicks video on demand streaming platform at any time in the future once the film has completed its festival circuit*.

*Lesflicks is a social enterprise and is committed to investing in filmmakers. As such 50% of gross subscription income goes directly to filmmakers in the form of royalties and grants, distributed based on views.
