Lust*streifen Film Festival Basel

Lust*streifen Film Festival Basel

Thursday, 09 October 2025 until Saturday, 11 October 2025

The underrepresentation of queers in film is reality. They are in need of a visible platform, to promote the acceptance of diversity. Because visibility creates reflexion and reflexion gives us awareness. Awareness leads to movement and movement is change.

We want to bring queer stories througout the world to the screen, to make space for reflexion and productive discussions. Our films are provoking, revolutionary, feminist, experimental, political, kinky, sex positive, contradictory, punk, trashy, gay, hetero, trans*, polyamorous, monogamic and much more.
