Queer Cinema for Palestine

Queer Cinema for Palestine

June 4, 2025

Innis Town Hall (2 Sussex Avenue, Toronto, ON).

Doors will open at 7 pm and the screening will begin at 7:30 pm.

Please join us for the Tkaronto/Toronto screening of the third iteration of Queer Cinema for Palestine, “No Pride in Genocide.” QCP began as a campaign to boycott TLVFest and give queer and allied filmmakers the opportunity to present their work in solidarity with Palestine. QCP is a collaboration between PACBI (Palestinian Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel) and a coalition of queer filmmakers, artists, activists, and community members across the world.

Queer Cinema for Palestine is:
A pledge. More than 300 queer filmmakers have pledged not to screen at the pinkwashing, Israeli government-sponsored TLVFest, in response to calls from Palestin­ian queers.
A global event. This year, Queer Cinema for Palestine, under the slogan “No Pride in Genocide,” has curated a 90-minute program of 8 stellar new short films, to be presented by groups/partners in cities globally during Pride month (June 2025).

Access info:
This is a masked screening and free masks will be provided.
