For those outside the capital, the Queer East Film Festival is taking to the road this month, November and December and will bring highlights of its programme to Chester, Leeds, Glasgow, Sheffield, Nottingham, Bradford, Edinburgh, Cambridge, Manchester, Bristol, Brighton, Liverpool, Newcastle, and Birmingham (note that tour cities and partnering venues TBC and subject to change).
In addition to the film programme the tour will include a series of special events including film introductions and Q&As, panel discussions, networking events and more, plus unique collaborations with local institutions.
For film showing keep an eye on their dedicated website.
One of the highlights is Takeshi Kitano's latest, Kubo.
Long-time anime dilettante and general lover of cinema. Obsessive re-watcher of 'stuff'. Has issues with dubs. Will go off on tangents about other things that no one else cares about but is sadly passionate about. (Also, parentheses come as standard.) Looks curiously like Jo Shishido, hamster cheeks and all.
