Mardi Gras Film Festival
Amidst an ongoing health crisis that saw so many film festivals going entirely virtual, Queer Screen’s 28th Mardi Gras Film Festivals was in the incredibly fortunate position to be one of the first to return to cinemas. Kicking off 2021 in style with our opening night film under the stars at Moonlight Cinema in Centennial Park, this year we also expanded the Showcase program strand, with five international narratives, an international documentary, and two Australian narrative features, including performances from the likes of Colin Firth, Stanley Tucci, and rising star Vanessa Kirby.
Screening 94 films over the course of the festival – including 3 world premieres, 60 Australian premieres, and 15 Sydney premieres – with 55% of the program available on-demand online Australia-wide and over 45 sessions and events in Sydney, there were more ways than ever to experience the festival.
