For the very first time, Queer Screen's 28th Mardi Gras Film Festival is offering audiences both an online or in-cinema experience for maximum safety and personal comfort.
Screening from the 18th of February to the 4th of March in Sydney - and nationally on-demand - the Festival will screen with restricted and socially distanced viewings.
SWITCH has collected its top reviews from this year's line-up - so check them out below... and don't forget to hit us up throughout the festival as we add more!
It goes beyond its often-tired narrative beats to deliver a moving story about love, loss and belonging, while managing to take its devastating subject matter and presenting it in a mostly jaunty way.
A beautiful, soulful and intelligent film, made with honesty, integrity and an unexpected sense of humour that breaks through the rock encasing it.
Its strong suit is the dynamo chemistry between its two leads, who breathe life into their characters. It's a film for those who have love in their hearts, or those who need a good dose of it.
While playing on familiar tropes, it's a delight to watch. The cast, comedy and setting combine into a beautiful coming-of-age story for audiences to delight in.
