Welcome to the 22nd Annual Indianapolis LGBT Film Festival

We're back! Join us to WATCH QUEER FILMS—an all-new collection designed to delight and inspire, while maintaining our commitment to highlighting stories of marginalized and underrepresented LGBTQIA+ artists. This year that amounts to 75 films from 20 countries, each dedicated to unique and authentic storytelling, shining a light on one or more facets of the queer prism.

2022 marks the 22nd year of the Indianapolis LGBT Film Festival and the second year in which we present it as a hybrid event featuring dual film-viewing capabilities: in-person screenings and digital streaming. We are thrilled to return to our new live event home, Kan-Kan Cinema and Brasserie on the near eastside of Indianapolis. Everyone at Kan-Kan has been incredibly supportive. We're grateful that we can share this movie-going experience with our film-loving community.

Let's remember the benefactor of our proceeds: Indiana Youth Group, best known as IYG. It remains  the longest-running LGBTQ youth organization in the entire country. For more than 30 years, IYG has provided safe spaces and vital support for thousands of LGBTQ youth in our state. To learn more about this critically important organization and why we are honored to continue to support it, please visit IndianaYouthGroup.org.

On behalf of everyone involved—from our hard-working steering committee to the filmmakers, writers and actors, to all our loyal sponsors, and adoring audiences, we sincerely thank you for supporting the 2022 Indianapolis LGBT Film Festival. And now—on with the show!
