Inside Out - Ottawa LGBT Film Festival

The 13th Edition of Inside Out Ottawa LGBT Film Festival returns at the National Gallery of Canada, October 24 - 27, 2019.

This year we bring three diverse programs filled with award-winning shorts, starting with our International Shorts, featuring Pop Rox, which won the Audience Award for Best Short Film at #InsideOut18 Toronto, and Femme, currently being adapted into a series!

We are also presenting a special FREE screening of our Canadian Shorts Program, thanks to the generous support of OutCBC. Catch local favourites such as the highly acclaimed The Things You Think I'm Thinking and For Nonna Anna, fresh from an Emerging Artist Award at #InsideOut18!
