We're excited to present an event that showcases stories of our trans community and the talented queer creators that bring these vital projects to life, in a uniquely historical queer environment.
Very often with a general LGBTQIA+ festival- trans stories are an "addition", but the New York Transgender Film Festival is all about US!
NYTFF is presented as part of the Trans Celebration Weekend (Sept 13-15), with a series of events that speak to the trans/non-binary experience. A weekend exclusively for our trans community to come together to celebrate queer writers, filmmakers and performers.
Films will screen Friday evening. Guest directors and performers will join a panel discussion on Saturday afternoon.
This amazing event will be held at the Cherry Grove Theater in Fire Island, which has national recognition as the longest running LGBTQ+ theater in the United States.
Jury and Audience awards are given for Best Narrative Feature, Best Documentary Feature, Best Short.
We accept festival submissions through FilmFreeway.
