As part of the "Baden Pride", two special film talks are offered. On June 10th, director David Wagner will talk about his film "ISMEYER", while on June 29 Andrea Brunner from AIDS help will give an insight into the film "Dallas Buyers Club". These discussions promote dialogue on important social issues and strengthen the connection between film and the Queer Community.

The meaning of Queer Film Festival

The events in the Cinema Paradiso reflect the tradition and political movements of the Queer community. Queer film festivals are not only cultural events, but also platforms for social dialogue and political activity. They offer an important connection between cultural offers and political framework conditions that the group of the LGBTQ+community appeal. According to Film Festival Research is the representation of the Queer Community in films of central importance, especially in the context of the (new) queer cinema.

These festivals not only promote the visibility of queer topics, but also serve the critical examination of the interactions between film and society. They create spaces for dialogues between filmmakers, audiences and organizers, which gives the festivals a central role in cultural education and in political landscape.
