Hamburg International Queer Film Festival
by Becky Tan
The 34th Hamburg International Queer Film Festival played October in four Hamburg cinemas as well as in Kampnagel, displaying 81 films including short films. It was so well organized, starting with the excellent festival magazine with instructions and descriptions, so that attendance was a pleasure. This is especially incredible considering that all work (except for one or two exceptions) was done on a volunteer basis. Their organization, the Push-Up Club, is made up of over 80 donors and novel members are welcome. Seating was by choice and almost a third of the 49 movie programs were sold out. Viewers rated films on a scale of one to four, with four being the best (See winners below).
Most amazing was the possibility to see all films online for a whole week post-festival, October , for six euros per film.
There were drawn-out feature films enjoying success around the world such as JOYLAND. Directed by Saim Sadiq, starring Ali Junejo as Haider, this Pakistani film shows us three generations of five adults and four children living togeth

In this light, it is even more memorable that the festival is organised almost entirely by volunteers who devote their free time to such a worthy project. This approach has proved successful: every year, the festival attracts approximately 15, visitors to screenings of around works, ranging from narrative main attraction films to documentaries and short films. From political to experimental to light-hearted, the eclectic mix of genres is combined in its egalitarian approach and LGBTQIA+-friendly choice of topics. Films are shown in the imaginative version with English s
