AnimaQUEER 2025

Festival Description:

AnimaQUEER is a queer-themed animation film festival. That is, only animated films whose narrative revolves around sexual diversity will be presented, with LGBTQIAPN+ main characters, or with stories that revolve around their sexuality.

The festival arises from the need to give visibility to animations that depart from heteronormative standards, since there is a great taboo in the world of animation regarding Queer characters. In this way, we create a space for these animations to be seen and celebrated.
