South Australian Queer film lovers will now have claim to their own film festival as the Adelaide Queer Film Festival gets ready to take off at the Mercury Cinema for three days in September 2008.
The Adelaide Queer Film Festival is being presented to showcase a selection of feature films, short films and documentaries from Australia and around the world that is of interest to and or about gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender people.
AQFF Event Manager Rohan Shearn says "the timing is right for Adelaide to have its own film festival, For many years Adelaide has missed out on a smörgåsbord of queer screenings that is screened elsewhere in other States."
The Mercury Cinema is an ideal location in the heart of the Adelaide's West End Precinct, and community support so far has been great with Gay Destination, Blazemedia and Pixel Pro pledging their assistance for the first festival." He added.
There will be films for boys and films for girls and maybe some for both! There will be high camp fun and romantic tales of queer love. Throw in a few drags and some glitter as Adelaide's queer community comes together for three days of celluloid fun.
The Adelaide Queer Film Festival Program Launch will take place on Thursday 7 August, 2008.
