“People and stories featured in the 17th annual International Queer Women of Color Film Festival are by turns tender, taunting, enchanting, fearful, indignant, proud, articulate and musical. Among the portraits are teachers, teenagers, middle-aged indigenous women delving into native languages and cultures, children discovering courage while exploring biodiversity in nature, dancers drawing energy from their natural surroundings, and activists laying claim to housing and joining in unity to withstand gentrification and economic forces that threaten displacement. The filmmakers display artistic diversity and technical sophistication and are queer women of color, nonbinary, gender nonconforming and transgender people of color.”
