Festival Submission Guidelines

Regardless of being selected or not for the QL program, preview copies will not be returned, and will be added to the QL archive. The Queer Lisboa film archive titles are made available upon request solely to film industry professionals and film students, for previews at the Queer Lisboa Videotheque.
Prior theatrical or television screening, so as DVD release in Portugal, and internet upload disqualifies films from selection.

If selected for the Festival Program:

The Legal Representative signing this Submission must make sure that a screening copy of the selected film is available for the Festival dates.
The screening copy must be sent to the Festival by its rights holder (at his/her charge) up to 10 days before the Festival opens. The Festival will take charge of its return.
Please note that the Festival does not pay any screening fee for films selected by submission.
If the film was selected through an internet private preview streaming, a DVD copy must be sent to QL when selected.
If the screening copy is in transit between Festivals, QL will only pay for either the import or export duties of the copy, never both.
Queer Lisboa is not responsible of damage or loss of the print or tape during shipping to and from the Festival.
Screening formats accepted: 35mm, DCP, Beta Sp, Digibeta, DVCam, MiniDV, and DVD. The screening of any other format which will imply a transfer will be negotiated.
Screening copies of films in any other language than English must be subtitled in English.
The selection of the film for any of the Competition Sections is of the sole responsibility of the Festival Programmers.
The Festival holds the right to use stills and up to 90’’ (ninety seconds) of film images for promotional purposes (TV and/ or internet).
The Rights Holder gives Queer Lisboa permission to make DVD copies of the work for press purposes.
Whenever possible each film is screened twice.
The invitation to directors and / or actors to attend the Festival depends on the sponsorship of private and public institutions to do so.

By submitting you agree to the Festival Submission Guidelines. For further details, please read our Festival Regulations.
