Kreivės / Vilnius Queer Festival

Vilnius Queer Festival “Kreivės” is an annual LGBT film festival in Lithuania.[1] The term "Kreivės" from the Lithuanian language means "the curves".[2]

The festival is open to feature films, documentaries and short films focusing on lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and intersex themes.[3] Nonetheless, building on earlier and cooperating with current other queer initiatives, the festival aspires to be a unique space for film screenings, events, and community building.[4] Working languages of the festival are Lithuanian and English.[5] Works accepted to screen at the festival are categorised in competitive and non-competitive categories at the discretion of "Kreivės".[6]

Held in a little cinema in central Vilnius and venues across the town, "Kreivės" events attract several thousand visitors each year.[7] Entrance to the festival's film screenings and events is donation-based.[8][9]

The festival is organised by In Corpore[10] in cooperation with other organisations and individual activists and artists.[11]
