About the festival

QueerBee is an LGBTIQ community enterprise set up by filmmakers to curate programmes of queer short films and show them at live events and online.

We are interested in any short films, made at any time on any LGBTIQ theme. You must own the rights to your film including the music and any images and likenesses.

By submitting your film you agree to our being able to show it in unlimited screenings and online in a private subscription site for up to five years. This is a non-exclusive arrangement and you are free to continue to share your film in any way you choose.

Every film selected is provided with laurels and the filmmakers connected to the QueerBee network for a share in the profits, if any, of the enterprise.

QueerBee is a Community Interest Company and Social Enterprise which is a non-profit organisation. However, if any surplus is made, 75% of this will be shared amongst the contributing filmmakers with 25% reinvested in QueerBee.
