aGLIFF has grown tremendously in size and scope from a short four-day run of four films primarily focused on coming out and AIDS to a multifaceted nonprofit organization with year-round community programs that culminate in our annual film festival program, with over 150 films depicting a myriad of issues across cultures, race, immigration status, class, gender identity and expression, age, and region.
The festival showcases feature films and shorts, mainstream and avant-garde. Films Symposia and panels have explored current political and social trends; and increasingly the festival provides a space for showcased, talented new voices for first-time filmmakers.
aGLIFF and the Polari non-profit organization goals:
- To create positive and visible film programs relevant to lives of LGBTQI-identified people
