About Queer Cinema for Palestine
QCP is a global film event co-organized by the Palestinian Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel (PACBI) and more than 200 partners, from China to Ecuador. QCP will include 110 screenings in 34 countries, hosted by queer, solidarity, activist, Indigenous and arts organizations, independent theatres, university departments, libraries, Pride events and film festivals.

Taking place during Pride month in many countries worldwide, the third edition of QCP aims to expose and fight Israel’s pinkwashing of its atrocities against Palestinians, including Israel’s Gaza genocide, and highlight a growing number of queer networks and Pride organizations ending complicity in Israel’s crimes. This year’s 90-minute program and filmmaker Q&A focuses on the work of queer, Palestinian, and allied artists, in historic Palestine, across the diaspora, and beyond. The program features a diverse mix of identities, lengths, styles, and genres (doc-hybrid, experimental, fiction, and animation) to highlight the key role of art in resistance and the struggle for liberation.

From Aotearoa to South Korea, Turtle Island to Pakistan, Slovenia to Palestine, hundreds of QCP partners are saying, “There is no pride in genocide.”

Queer Cinema for Palestine – No Pride in Genocide

Jun 28, 2025 15:00

This June, during Pride Month, several grassroots queer collectives across China will host a solidarity screening series featuring films from the Queer Cinema for Palestine (QCP) program. These collectives are queer-led, community-based groups working primarily with women, LGBTQ+, and other marginalized communities. Many of them have long been engaged in transnational solidarity work, including raising awareness about the Palestinian struggle.

While the QCP screenings themselves are not fundraising events, our local organizing partners have chosen to add community-led donation efforts alongside the screenings, with all funds directed toward urgent relief for Gaza. We believe that queer liberation is inseparable from anti-colonial and anti-apartheid struggles around the world.

Due to safety reasons, we will organize in private spaces in different cities of Mainland China.

La Fundación Teatro Del Presagio es un espacio  cultural con vocación artística y social, que desde el 2005 se ha consolidado como un ecosistema de creación e intercambio que prioriza el arte jóven, el enfoque de género y de diversidad sexual. Trabajamos en el fortalecimiento de redes y prácticas incluyentes para el desarrollo de la región y el país, que promuevan los derechos culturales y el disfrute de las artes, aportando a la formación de públicos y ciudadanías sensibles, incluyentes, democráticas y participativas.

Teatro Del Presagio Foundation is a cultural space with an artistic and social vocation that, since 2005, has consolidated itself as an ecosystem for creation and exchange, prioritizing youth art, gender perspective, and sexual diversity. We work to strengthen inclusive networks and practices for regional and national development, promoting cultural rights and the enjoyment of the arts, contributing to the formation of sensitive, inclusive, democratic, and participatory audiences and citizenships.

Since 2009, we have led the National Queer Art Gathering (ENAQ), which in 2025—between June 7 and 21—will celebrate its seventh edition (VII ENAQ), alongside the second edition of the Meeting of Latin American Women Artists (II ELLAS), whose first edition was held in Brazil. This joint initiative will offer a significant cultural agenda in the city of Cali and bring together diverse social actors to encourage multicultural and intergenerational exchange. It also aims to strengthen safe spaces and empower the creative processes of women and the LGTBIQ+ community, highlighting gender and/or intersectional approaches.

This will take place as part of the Pride Month commemorations in June, contributing to the strengthening of democracy, respect for diversity, and the construction of peace.

As part of the No Pride in Genocide campaign, we at Quxi invite you to come together every Sunday in June for a film series on the interconnected queer and trans struggles for liberation – from Turtle Island to Palestine, from Kashmir to Kurdistan, from Congo to Sudan.

Israeli pinkwashing tries to perpetuate a backward, racist idea about Palestinian people, that they’re inherently homophobic, and that queer and trans Palestinians do no stand in opposition to apartheid and genocide. We reject this narrative and want to create a collective space for solidarity with global struggles against colonialism and state violence.

June 15: Queer Cinema for Palestine Short Film Program

A 90-minute program as curated by Queer Cinema for Palestine that consists of 8 new short films. The focus of the evening will be on the work of queer, Palestinian, and allied artists, across locales, in historic Palestine and the diaspora, identities, lengths, styles and genres (doc-hybrid, experimental, fiction, and animation) to highlight art’s position in resistance and the struggle for liberation.

We will start around 19:00 and hope to finish by 21:00. Afterwards, there will be an open-bar evening where there will be space to come together, to share our thoughts, our fears, our dreams or just exist without pressure. Come as you are! There will be drinks and snacks but if you have special wishes, feel free to bring along your own.

Background:

Queer Cinema for Palestine began as an alternative ethical space for filmmakers who pulled or refused to show their work in the Israeli government-sponsored TLVFest LGBTQ Film Festival. Over the past six years, hundreds of filmmakers have shown their solidarity in response to the boycott call from queer and trans Palestinians. As Israel continues its genocide and ethnic cleansing in Gaza, the West Bank, and across historic Palestine, we condemn this violence and stand in solidarity with Palestinians.

QAMERAD #6: NO PRIDE IN GENOCIDE! 

Jun 15, 2025 18:00

Bali, Indonesia

Israel continues to attempt to instrumentalize our identities as queer and trans people to justify its genocide against Palestinians, including murdering, blackmailing, and imprisoning queer and trans Palestinians. Accordingly, Queer Cinema for Palestine (QCP) teams up with Bali-based queer cinema collective QAMERAD to present No Pride in Genocide, a global film event, co-organized by the Palestinian Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel (PACBI) and 50+ partners in 25 countries, from China to Ecuador.  Our festival will take place in Bali during June 2025, the month that marks Pride in many countries worldwide. We do so to continue our refusal of Israel’s pinkwashing. This year’s program focuses on the work of queer, Palestinian, and allied artists, across locales, in historic Palestine and the diaspora, identities, lengths, styles and genres (doc-hybrid, experimental, fiction, and animation) to highlight art’s position in resistance and the struggle for liberation.

No Pride in Genocide, Tak Ada Bangga Selama Ada Genosida

Jun 30, 2025 19.00

Yogyakarta, Indonesia

This year marks 77 years of Nakba. And Palestine is still enduring a brutal genocide. The colonialist and capitalist oppressive force, including through homonationalism, continues the destruction of bodies, lands, histories. Deep wound and intergenerational violence persists. Therefore, rage and grief are sacred, it is the radical power to change, to keep practicing hope. Queer solidarity is re-membering the possibility, the steadfastness and the interdependence of this struggle of liberation. That there is no queer liberation without Palestine liberation. 

We will organise the screenings in two different places with the possibility of short discussion. At the screening place, we would like to also share to each other various solidarity arts forms created, by individual or collective – books, posters, poems, movement, dance, etc. 

Organizers/partners: 

• Qbukatabu, an organisation uses art and cultural approach to build and distribute queer-feminist political narrative, sexual rights and facilitates online counselling services for diverse gender, sexuality and sexual and gender based violence. 
• Peretas, short for perempuan lintas batas (literal translation: women crossing boundaries) works through and towards the politics of feminist solidarity among women art workers in Indonesia and beyond.
• Pondok Pesantren Waria Al-Fatah (Al-Fatah Transgender Islamic School), a school dedicated to transgender, particularly transwomen, to learn and practice about Islam

Queer Cinema for Palestine: No Pride in Genocide — Prishtina Screening

This Pride Month, Dylberizm joins over 50 queer collectives and cultural organizations around the world for Queer Cinema for Palestine: No Pride in Genocide — a global act of cultural resistance, solidarity, and remembrance.

As queers in Kosovo, we know that our struggle is not isolated. Our liberation is bound up with the liberation of others. We have learned, through our own history, what it means to be erased, alienated, and persecuted — to be weaponized in nationalist and imperial narratives, to have our pain used as justification for war. That’s why we stand with queers in Palestine — because their fight is also ours.

We reject pinkwashing. We reject the use of queer lives as PR cover for violence, apartheid, and occupation. There can be no pride in genocide. No freedom in complicity. No queer liberation under military occupation.

We come together in grief, in rage, in hope, and in solidarity. Because queer resistance does not stop at borders. And because we know: none of us are free until all of us are free.

Kvír Palestína na plátne – 8 pohľadov odporu (Queer Palestine on screen – 8 views of resistance)

Jun 1, 2025 17:30

A4 – Priestor súčasnej kultúry
Karpatská 2, 811 05 Bratislava, Bratislava, Slovakia

Ako môže film sprostredkovať hlas utláčaných? Ako sa prelína boj za kvír práva s bojom proti kolonializmu a genocíde? A čo znamená postaviť sa na stranu spravodlivosti, aj keď je to nepohodlné?

Práve na tieto otázky odpovedá pásmo krátkometrážnych filmov „Kvír Palestína na plátne – 8 pohľadov odporu“, ktoré sa uskutoční 1. júna o 17:30 v A4 – priestore súčasnej kultúry v Bratislave.

Toto podujatie je súčasťou medzinárodnej filmovej iniciatívy Queer Cinema for Palestine (QCP), ktorá vznikla ako akt solidarity so všetkými, ktorí sa postavili proti tzv. pinkwashingu – stratégii, ktorou sa štát Izrael snaží prekryť svoju účasť na okupácii a porušovaní ľudských práv Palestínčanov tým, že sa prezentuje ako “lídrom v LGBTI+ právach”. QCP nadväzuje na výzvu palestínskeho hnutia za bojkot, sankcie a divestície (BDS), ktoré žiada kultúrne inštitúcie a jednotlivcov, aby sa nezúčastňovali na štátom sponzorovaných izraelských podujatiach, ako je TLVFest – Tel Aviv International LGBTQ Film Festival. Viacerí kvír filmári a filmárky po celom svete odmietli spoluprácu s TLVFestom a namiesto toho vytvorili vlastnú platformu pre promovanie palestínskej kultúry odporu: Queer Cinema for Palestine.

V roku 2025 sa QCP koná pod heslom „No Pride in Genocide“ – ako jasné vyhlásenie, že LGBTI+ hrdosť nemôže spolunažívať s mlčaním o genocíde v Gaze. V kontexte systematickej dehumanizácie a násilného vymazávania palestínskeho ľudu, vrátane kvír Palestínčaniek a Palestínčanov, je nevyhnutné klásť otázky: Kto má právo byť videný? Kto môže rozprávať svoj príbeh? A koho obrazy sú neustále cenzurované, prekrývané či ignorované?

Pásmo 8 krátkych filmov predstavuje rôznorodé pohľady a umelecké prístupy – od dokumentárnych výpovedí až po experimentálne, poetické i výsostne politické diela. Ide o medzinárodnú kolekciu, ktorá reflektuje kvír palestínsku a libanonskú skúsenosť ako skúsenosť telesnosti, túžby, vytrvania, ale aj straty, vykorenenia a neustáleho ohrozenia. Filmy vznikli v exile, v okupovaných územiach aj v diasporách – a všetky spája snaha odolať vymazaniu.

„8 pohľadov odporu – Kvír Palestína na plátne“ nie je len filmovým zážitkom. Je to gesto solidarity. Je to výzva, aby sme ako diváci a diváčky prehodnotili svoje pohodlie, rozšírili svoju optiku a načúvali hlasom, ktoré sú často systematicky umlčiavané. Podujatie má ambíciu byť aj priestorom na diskusiu o tom, ako sú LGBTI+ práva neoddeliteľné od širšieho zápasu za sociálnu a globálnu spravodlivosť.

Podujatie organizuje spoločne kolektív Včera bolo neskoro a študentský kvír spolok LIGHT* pri Univerzite Komenského v Bratislave v spolupráci s A4 – Priestorom súčasnej kultúry.

Miesto konania, kultúrne centrum A4, je otvoreným priestorom pre súčasné umenie, kritické myslenie a občiansky aktivizmus – a nie náhodou hostí toto jedinečné premietanie, ktoré prepojí umenie s politickým vedomím a ľudskoprávnou zodpovednosťou.

🎟 Vstup je voľný – odporúča sa však dobrovoľný príspevok, ktorý bude smerovaný na podporu kvír umelcov a umelkýň v Palestíne.

🫱 Podujatie je otvorené všetkým – bez rozdielu identity, pôvodu či presvedčenia – ktorí veria, že umenie môže byť nástrojom zmeny.

Speakers: Julián Vrábel

THE LEVANTINE LUNCHEONS\ 

Jun 20, 2025 18:30

Inland_campoadentro
C. del Buen Gobernador, 4, Cdad. Lineal, 28027 Madrid, Madrid, Spain

From April to June, we begin the BastaLand programme at CAR – Madrid with Palestinian artist Shayma Hamad, gathering around the table to use food as a medium for dialogue, resistance, and resilience.

This three-month series weaves together recipes and ingredients with film screenings and readings, bringing us closer to the cultures of the Levant — while exploring the political, historical, and social narratives carried by each dish. Through this journey across imaginaries, memories, and the lived geopolitical realities of Palestine, Hamad invites us to experience cooking as a language, stories as a tool, and gathering as a form of solidarity and collective memory.

BastaLand: Projections and Food is part of the ongoing collaboration between BastaTheater and INLAND since 2023. With each session, we not only share food and films — we support a wider constellation of invited artists, cultural workers, and practices rooted in land, care, and resistance.

Registration is open via the link in bio. Your participation supports the broader work of BastaLand and its collaborators

Our Sixth Event : 

June | Queer Cinema + BDS Menu + Israel banned ingredients menu. 

5:30 PM – 7:30 PM

 Join us for a special screening as part of the Queer Cinema for Palestine initiative, celebrating Palestinian voices and queer solidarity. The event will also feature a BDS-inspired menu, reflecting our support for the Palestinian-led Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement.

It is a space which invites the public to explore what cannot be metabolised into productivity, for the ways contemporary politics, debt, and bureaucracy can feel as an assault. And so as an offering to the project, Al-Maria would like to use The Pits as one of the many locations for Queer Cinema for Palestine festival during Pride Month.

The films in Insurgent Transmissions highlight the works of contemporary Palestinian filmmakers, amplifying their voices through their films and the films they see as most urgent in this moment of cultural erasure and genocide.

We continue our refusal of Israeli pinkwashing.

Queer Cinema For Palestine
MILLENNIUM FILM WORKSHOP : PRIDE SERIES 025

Jun 13, 2025
Doors open at 7pm | screening at 7:30pm | discussion 9-10 pm

Millennium Film Workshop
167 Wilson Ave, Brooklyn, New York City, United States 

The Millennium Film Workshop in partnership with Aubin Pictures and Boyfriend Co-op, will be joining the 2025 edition of Queer Cinema for Palestine, with over 100 venues in 30+ countries this June screening films that center queer and Palestinian voices. This year’s short film program features 8 films from panning documentary, experimental, animation, and hybrid fiction including; Abgad Hawaz by Robin Riad, Out of Gaza by Seza Tiyara Selen, Jannis Osterburg, Blood Like Water by Dima Hamdan, A tangled web drowning in honey by Tara Hakim & Hannah Hull, Aliens in Beirut by Raghed Charabaty, Palcorecore by Dana Dawud, I never promised you a Jasmine Garden by Teyama AlKamli, Don’t take my joy away by Omar Gabriel.

At the Millennium Film Workshop, we remain committed to creating space for radical, independent filmmaking – especially as we’ve seen more and more institutions withdraw support for work that speaks to urgent political realities. We hope to maintain our programming and events as an open platform that isn’t shaped by fear or silence but by solidarity, imagination and collaboration.

QCP began as a response to the call from queer Palestinians who asked artists to withdraw from state-sponsored festivals in Israel. Since then, it’s become a growing network of filmmakers and organizers building a different kind of cultural space – one rooted in courage and connection.

We’re hosting this screening during Pride Month to stand against pinkwashing and to reaffirm that queer liberation is inseparable from the fight for justice for oppressed people everywhere.
