TQFF Symposium 2023: Queer Wonderlands

April 21 - April 23, 2023

Toronto Queer Film Festival is proud to present this year’s Symposium, Queer Wonderlands. Since 2019, TQFF has hosted a Symposium that invites artists, scholars, writers, and community workers to host workshops, panels, presentations, performances, and other free programming for the public.

The theme for the 2023 festival and symposium, Queer Wonderlands, invokes realms full of transitions, joy, and love, inspired by imagination with the anticipation of what is to come. Calling on the Queer imagining that occurs through the uncanny, monstrous, whimsical, and fantastical, we invite participants presenting and attending the symposium to step into a world of collective visioning where all 2Spirit/Queer/Trans people and communities thrive in an environment of wellness, protection, connection, and sustainability of this existence.

Who we are

The Toronto Queer Film Festival is a collectively-run, artist-centered, not-for-profit festival that showcases contemporary, innovative, queer and trans film and video art.

We are especially interested in supporting formally experimental films and/or social justice-themed projects that center the experiences of Indigenous people, people of color, people with disabilities, transgender people, sex workers, porn makers, and other communities often marginalized in contemporary LGBT cultural programming and spaces.
