Trans Stellar Film Festival

We are a film festival made by and for queer people! We seek films created by queer filmmakers, of any content, and provide a platform for exhibition of the very best. Please note: we accept films only from LGBTQ+ filmmakers. In 2021, we will be switching to a virtual format until it is safe to hold in-person events. Our annual festival typically takes place at the end of September over 2 days at an independent theater in Detroit. We love to host you, the winning filmmakers, for Q&As with the public! For the past 5 years, we have put together an incredible festival hosting films from across the globe, from world premieres to city favorites, we show a wide selection of films by queer artists like you. Our Mission: Trans Stellar Film Festival encourages diversity and queer agency in art by promoting the exhibition of films created by queer people. We seek films by queer filmmakers with a variety of content and form and provide a platform for their exhibition to the public and industry professionals. Our values include diversity, inclusion, agency, accessibility, and community. Please contact us at lauren.bc@transstellarfilmfestival.com about fee waivers or discounts available.
