Barbara Forever

This year’s programme brings a brilliant mix of LGBTQ+ stories to the big screen, from bold new releases and powerful documentaries to cult classics, shorts and special Q&A screenings.

Now in its 15th year, Queer Vision continues to celebrate LGBTQ+ cinema in Bristol, reflecting our stories on screen and showing the power film has to connect people, start conversations and drive change.

Join us across Watershed and the @bristolmegascreen at the former IMAX for two weeks of films, conversations and Pride celebration.
