Content notes

This year we are delighted to be able to bring a great selection of queer films to the big screen again, representing a diverse range of queer realities and experiences. In a society shaped in part by heteronormativity, racism, sexism and classism, these experiences can be accompanied by hardship and violence. The following content notes are intended to draw your attention to potentially distressing content in the films, so that you can decide for yourself whether you would like to watch them.

The list is not all-inclusive. People react very differently to a wide variety of triggers. If you have any questions about individual films, please feel free to contact us at: contact@hiqff.de.
