DESCRIPTION
The Antivirus magazine team honors this year’s IDAHOBIT with a three-day LGBTQI+ film festival. The films will be subtitled in both Greek and English and the screenings will take place at the historic Trianon cinema.
This year’s Queer Movie Nights will present films with themes such as sports, family, refugee and masculinity, all with a focus on the LGBTQI+ community.
In an effort to support the work of queer artists in Greece, Queer Movie Nights will host the Greek Section to let the public choose the best Greek LGBTQI+ short film.
During the festival, QMN will have the pleasure of hosting the directors of the films “The Swimmer” and “In from the Side,” as well as panels featuring organizations and personalities related to the LGBTQI+ community.
