Out Takes Guide to the 2023 Mardi Gras Film Festival

TV & Film

Now in its thirtieth year, the Mardi Gras Film Festival will bring 166 films from Australia and around the world to Sydney for two glorious weeks of queer cinema from February 15 – March 2. Along with a fantastic in-cinema program, many of the titles will be available online and on demand for audiences to enjoy right around the country. There’s a lot to look at as we celebrate the Festival so we were delighted to welcome back Mardi Gras Film Festival director Lisa Rose for a deep dive into everything that the Festival has to offer. To check it out for yourself, visit Queer Screen online and on social media.
