To illuminate, celebrate and advance q***r lives through film, education and dialogue.

Since 1988, Out On Screen's programs have illuminated, celebrated and advanced q***r communities through film, education, and dialogue. The Vancouver Q***r Film Festival creates a dynamic platform for q***r cinema that reflects the diversity of our experiences while connecting and strengthening our communities. Out in Schools brings q***r, trans, and two-spirit cinema into classrooms throughout BC to combat homophobia, transphobia, and bullying. We are proud to be among the leaders in Canada working to create an equitable society where sexual and gender diversity are embraced.

We dug through our archives recently and found this incredible Halloween le***an vampire night in our first-ever festival guide from 1988, when we were founded as the Vancouver Le***an Film Festival.

34 years later on the same date, Friday, October 28th, we are holding another sapphic Halloween double feature, this time featuring Jennifer’s Body (2009) and drag performances from Maiden China and persephone estradiol: https://outonscreen.com/film/jennifers-body-halloween-fundraiser/

Since we could not have said it better ourselves, here’s the invite from ‘88’s “Hallowe’en Extravaganza!”:

"Dress in your most vampy clothes and sharpen your teeth! It’s camp and kitsch night again with the lustful le***an vampires!!!"

Hope to see you out at York Theatre tomorrow!
