The Frameline48 Film Festival is already underway all around the Bay Area, showcasing the latest and greatest in LGBTQ+ cinema. But for those who are unable to make the trip out to San Francisco, many of the queer films being shown at the festival can now be viewed through the Frameline48 streaming session.
‘Frameline48 at Home’ runs from June 24-30, where streaming passes are available, granting viewers access to all of the streaming films. Alternatively, encore tickets can be purchased to view individual films, so you can spend the final days of Pride month celebrating queer voices. We’ve rounded up a few of our most anticipated films to give you just a taste of these diverse LGBTQ+ stories.
