Kamloops Queer Film Series


Queer Film Series

The Kamloops Film Society is thrilled to announce the launch of a new film committee: The Queer Film Series! The committee consists of allies and members of the 2SLGBTQ+ community; from youth, to KFS staff, to community leaders of Kamloops. With this new series you can expect a queer themed movie on the last Friday almost every month–year round.

The committee is dedicated to showing you stories and experiences beyond your own to help connect with different perspectives, celebrate identity, learn about queer history, and showcase some beautiful movies along the way. Thank you to our Sponsors
