QUEER YOUTH SHORTS´26

Queer Youth traces moments of first becoming: first love, secret night escapes, stolen time, and first heartbreaks. The programme lingers on fleeting encounters and fragile emotions, capturing youth as a space of intensity, risk, and discovery.
Curated also with young audiences in mind, the films move between tenderness and vulnerability, portraying queer youth as self-determined, complex, and deeply felt — experiences shaped by desire, uncertainty, and the search for one’s own rhythm.
