Held annually in October, Flip the Script is a nine-day film festival that celebrates Queer stories from 2SLGBTQIA+ filmmakers all over the globe!
Returning this October 11–19, 2024, we will continue to present a hybrid festival with in-person screenings at Emagine Willow Creek, and extended virtual access through our Virtual Cinema hosted by Eventive!
OUR MISSION
Flip the Script’s mission is to remove barriers to access Queer film!
We believe quality representation should be accessible for all and that financial means should never keep filmmakers from submitting their films or audience members from participating in our programming. Providing access to subsidized FREE tickets, passes, and submissions fees, to everyone, is the cornerstone of our organization and supported by donations made through our fiscal sponsorship with Springboard for the Arts.
WHY WE DO IT
Who and what we see on screen affects our community, the entertainment industry, and even legislation. Too often in film, Queer folks are seen in tragic or powerless situations. We’re working to flip that narrative by showcasing stories that inspire us to envision ourselves and the Queer community without restrictions.
