Montreal LGBT Film Festival

Thursday, 20 November 2025 until Sunday, 30 November 2025

A pioneer of LGBT2SQ+ cinema for nearly 40 years, image+nation is dedicated to sharing the stories and experiences of LGBT2SQ+ people. image+nation is an inclusive annual 11-day festival, the oldest of its kind in Canada, featuring award-winning locally and internationally produced films that strives to preserve the authenticity and diversity of LGBT2SQ+ voices.

image+nation's mission is to represent, protect and prepare present and future generations of queer storytellers and media makers while building empathy through sharing stories with audiences here in Canada, and throughout the world with new online initiatives.

Currently, image+nation is developing educational and mentoring programs dedicated to nurturing emerging content, particularly from underrepresented queer communities such as I+N Explore, inaugurated in 2016, I+N StoryLab and virtual and database projects now in development. Exciting initiatives working towards bringing queer creators together to make amazing things happen.

Now into its fourth decade of showcasing LGBT2SQ+ culture, image+nation explores New Queer Storytelling and the uniqueness and universality of these stories; striving to promote diversity, inclusivity and the many intersectional aspects of queer voices and communities.
