The festival will take place from 1 to 12 July 2024.

XXI OutfestPerù Film Festival

The gay-lesbian-trans-bi queer Outfestperú Film Festival arrives in its twenty-first edition with stories of sexual diversity in three venues – Cultural Center of Spain, Alliance Française and Goethe Institute – with a large majority of sessions free of charge. The Festival thus bets, against the tide of the past, on making visible, raising awareness and educating the public on the importance of being different in a situation that seems to want us silent, without culture and in the closet, like a skeleton.

The short film

A young man, disappointed in human relations, moves into a tower in the middle of nowhere. However over time the pleasant solitude gives in to dreams of intimacy, and the hermit attempts to satisfy them by calling an escort. The encounter won’t go as imagined, but will encourage him to question his solitary life.
