London Lesbian and Gay Film Festival
- London Lesbian and Gay Film Festival
The London Lesbian and Gay Film Festival (LLGFF) takes place every spring in London, England. It began as a season of gay and lesbian films at the National Film Theatre in 1986 and 1987 under the title "Gay's Own Pictures", curated by Peter Packer of the Tyneside Cinema, and was renamed the London Lesbian and Gay Film Festival in 1988. The 22nd LLGFF takes place from Thursday 27 March to Thursday 10 April 2008 and will feature over 200 films.
Organised and run by the British Film Institute, most LLGFF screenings take place in the BFI Southbank. Open and closing gala screenings take place at the Odeon in Leicester Square. Every summer, a selection of feature films and short films shown at the Festival goes on tour around the UK.
