  Amazing Adventures through a Queer World

queerDOC'08

Our annual LGBT documentary festival has always had an international flavour, but we’ve never visited this many destinations in an 11 day event before.  In living proof the queer experience knows no boundaries, these stories cross borders of culture, politics, gender and even our moral codes.

Just to keep you on your toes, we’ve included two MOCKumentaries in the festival line up… and we’re not telling you which one’s they are.

We've collected 9 “must see destinations” in LGBT lives, buckle up and enjoy the ride.

queerDOC is NOW TOURING, find out more HERE
