Queer East Festival is back from 23 April to 18 May 2025 for a four-week-long festival of cinema and performing arts across London, showcasing over 100 titles, including features, shorts, documentaries and moving image work that explores the ever-evolving queer landscape across East and Southeast Asia.
The richness of Asian and queer communities forms a vital part of the UK’s identity and over the past six years Queer East has forged a space for bold, alternative and multifaceted expressions of artistic queerness.
Activism, community and the collective memory of queer history take centre stage in this year’s programme: from an avant-garde cult classic shot in Shinjuku in the 1960s, to a verbatim theatre play about queer elders in Singapore; from a heartfelt documentary on lesbian advocacy, to an intimate dance piece about queer belonging, the festival continues its commitment to screening a vital and diverse programme that will get audiences talking.
