The Palace International Film Festival
The Palace International Film Festival is an LGBTQIA+ film festival experienced through multi-disciplinary performances, workshops and panels from local Bristol and international queer artists, occurring from 8th – 12th September at Bricks in Bristol.
In line with our tagline: ‘elevating experimentation and creating conversation’, PIFF aims to spotlight emerging talent and bring together LGBTQIA+ artists, communities and allies.
PIFF celebrates the individual and collective identities that we share through the power of queer culture. The 2021 programme invites Bristol: to experience the pop-up outdoor cinema and indulge in the variety of queer cinema on offer through over 100 short and feature-length films; to dive into the immersive 3D world of queer virtual reality; and explore the PIFF virtual platform for those staying at home – all experienced alongside multisensory performances and workshops where inspiring conversations are created and ideas are shared.
