TLVFest

TLVFest

Thursday, 23 October 2025 until Saturday, 01 November 2025

The 20th TLVFest - Tel Aviv International LGBTQ+ Film Festival is right around the corner and will take place on October 23rd - November 1st 2025.

We are opening submissions for the festival at a complex time when winds of hatred and war are blowing around us.

As a film festival, we strive to place focus on movies that promote love, peace and tolerance through the art of cinema.

We aim to provide a stage for LGBTQ+ movies with different perspectives and cultural backgrounds.

We believe that the power of cinema can change the mind and create empathy, awareness and understanding.

Our festival is, and will always be, in favour of peace and a solution between two sane and healthy democratic countries.

We are concerned to see that anti-Semitism, anti-Muslim resentment, anti-democratic currents, and hate speech are spreading in our country and all over the world. As a cultural institution, we take a firm stand against all forms of discrimination, hate speech and prejudice.

We look forward to watching your submissions, to build a unique, colorful and boundary-breaking LGBTQ+ Film Festival program.
