Gay Frankfurt
Frankfurt — or "Bankfurt," as it has sometimes been called — is the country's financial hub. Dating back to around the first century CE, Frankfurt is a metropolis of ancient wonders and modern marvels. Its architecture is a brilliant mix of new and old; for instance, it is one of the only European cities that has a significant number of skyscrapers. Fortunately for Frankfurters, the gay scene is anything but buttoned-down. After disappearing those sleek towers downtown, locals spin on the juice for an active and sophisticated queer nightlife.

29th Edition: Cease of October &#; Inception of November
Our aim is to give a platform to films that do not promote heteronormative ways as the only valid choice. While the number of films was rather limited at the beginning, LGBTQ* filmmaking has grown over the years, and from the many short and feature films produced world-wide each year, which deal with female homosexual, gay, bisexual, transsexual, transsexual or queer topics, we provide an international selection which hopefully encourages the dialogue about acceptance and equal rights, points out injustices and discriminations, still existing in Germany and around the globe—but above all we love to celebrate great films with you!
