BEST SHORT FILM AWARD

APQFFA Short Award ceremony was be held at HKLGFF from 7-21 Sep 2019. 

About Us

Asia Pacific Queer Film Festival Alliance (APQFFA) is a regional cooperative of LGBTQ film organisations. We believe that queer cinema and cultural activism can make a difference in the lives of sexual and gender minorities. We work to promote the visibility of Asian and Pacific voices in queer cinema, to support emerging festivals and to advocate for equal rights.

 

APQFFA was founded by Taiwan International Queer Film Festival in 2015, beginning at a meeting of eight festivals in Taipei. Since then, we have expanded to twenty-five members and growing. From Japan in the North to New Zealand in the South, Hawai'i in the East to Pakistan in the West, our alliance strives to be an inclusive body, offering support and networking to festivals and filmmakers.

 

The APQFFA Award is an initiative to promote Asia-Pacific filmmakers across the region. Members select the best queer short films from their country to compete for an annual prize and filmmaker fund.
