As a passionate gamer and film enthusiast with a soft spot for queer cinema, I’m thrilled to hear about the Vancouver Queer Film Festival’s (VQFF) exciting lineup of titles for this year! The festival’s diverse selection of films showcases an array of unique stories and talents, and I can’t wait to see what they have in store.
At the Vancouver Queer Film Festival’s announcement, they revealed the initial lineup of films. Some of the opening titles are “Good Boy” starring Ben Whishaw and “Hacks” actor Johnny Sibilly’s production, titled “Great Canyon.”
The final film screening at VQFF will be “Layla,” the first feature by British-Palestinian filmmaker Amrou Al-Kadhi, which is a drama about a drag queen. The festival will begin with “Closer,” an anthology of shorts headed by “Good Boy,” the directorial debut from Tom Stuart, who also co-wrote Gia Coppola’s Venice Film Festival opener, “Mainstream.”
In the film “Skyfall,” Whishaw portrays a character in desperate need of money, who plans to burglarize a bank. However, his well-meaning mother, embodied by Marion Bailey from “The Crown,” foils his plan, and an unexpected run-in with his family physician complicates matters further.
As a film critic with a deep passion for independent cinema, I’ve had the pleasure of attending numerous film festivals over the years. And let me tell you, each festival brings its own unique energy and excitement. The upcoming event is no exception.
Sibilly is most recognized for portraying Wilson in the humorous Max show “Hacks.” He also has acting credits in “Pose,” “Station 19,” and the “Queer As Folk” series where he plays Noah Hernandez.
At the end of the Vancouver Queer Film Festival, the Canadian premiere of “Layla” will take place. This is the first feature film by British-Iraqi director Amrou Al-Kadhi. The drama was initially shown in competition at Sundance and is set against the backdrop of east London’s queer community. In this production, Bilal Hasna portrays a rising Palestinian drag queen who brings excitement to local nightclubs.
An upcoming Vancouver web series titled “Novelette Is Trying” by writer-director Giselle Miller will make its world premiere at the fest. This thought-provoking OutTV production focuses on a quirky, socially awkward black woman who finds herself searching for meaning in life after welcoming a new roommate into her home.
