Entry Guide
Call for Entries for 2025 SIPFF
Seoul International PRIDE Film Festival (SIPFF) aims to present films by and about sexual minorities (Queers) that are often difficult to access in mainstream Korean society. By professionally screening these films from around the world, we hope to amplify the voices of LGBTQ+ individuals and provide opportunities for their stories to be seen and heard.
Moreover, by supporting the production and showcasing of LGBTQ+ films and works from diverse perspectives, SIPFF contributes to the expansion of Korean society’s cultural diversity and inclusive discourse.
SIPFF is a space that protects and promotes the rights of sexual minorities living in Korea and supports non-mainstream voices through cinema. The festival welcomes a wide range of films—whether they address personal or societal topics related to sexual minorities such as identity, discrimination, violence, or social structures. We look forward to receiving your work.
