Queer Rhapsody Film Series

Queer Rhapsody film series, from July 19 to 28, organized by the UCLA Film & Television Archive. Centering the queer community in joy, defiance and creative expression, the series will showcase more than 50 short and feature-length films across five iconic Los Angeles venues

The Queer Rhapsody journey includes several short film programs that entice with both intimacy and universality. These programs are Queering Memory: Gathering Light Past, Present and Future, Sacred Sites: Queer Sanctuaries, Laughing Through Fire: Comedy as a Compass, Determined Defiance: Voices of Change, Generations in Bloom: Growth and Connection Across the Ages, Love in Focus: Black Queer Rhapsody and Transcendent Movements: Queer Artists in Motion. Each film featured contributes to an overarching imprint of artful direction, dynamic cinematography and collective voices of celebration. The narrative and documentary feature films foster a sense of belonging, ignite creative connections and bring together diverse voices in a symphony of shared experiences and aspirations.
