The goal of MQFF is to bring a queer brightness to Muskoka and to make diverse queer life more visible in the region. We are aiming to show the public all the bright sides of queer life and to inspire and support the local LQBTQI2S community with positive role models. With this, we are looking for the queer film stories that will carry an uplifting attitude and show the examples of overcoming the challenges of existing in the cis-gendered heterosexual (cis-hetero), world, or would demonstrate the beauty and spirit of lesbian, gay, bi or trans life, culture, and relationships.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>","excerpt":"","slug":"muskoka-queer-film-festival-goes-virtual","image":false,"all_day":false,"start_date":"2020-05-15 07:00:00","start_date_details":{"year":"2020","month":"05","day":"15","hour":"07","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"end_date":"2020-05-17 21:00:00","end_date_details":{"year":"2020","month":"05","day":"17","hour":"21","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"utc_start_date":"2020-05-15 11:00:00","utc_start_date_details":{"year":"2020","month":"05","day":"15","hour":"11","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"utc_end_date":"2020-05-18 01:00:00","utc_end_date_details":{"year":"2020","month":"05","day":"18","hour":"01","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"timezone":"America\/Toronto","timezone_abbr":"EDT","cost":"","cost_details":{"currency_symbol":"","currency_position":"prefix","values":[]},"website":"https:\/\/mqff.ca\/","show_map":false,"show_map_link":false,"hide_from_listings":false,"sticky":false,"featured":false,"categories":[{"name":"Festival","slug":"festival","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":118,"taxonomy":"tribe_events_cat","description":"An event for writers and readers","parent":0,"count":103,"filter":"raw","id":118,"urls":{"self":"https:\/\/canadianauthors.org\/national\/wp-json\/tribe\/events\/v1\/categories\/118","collection":"https:\/\/canadianauthors.org\/national\/wp-json\/tribe\/events\/v1\/categories"}},{"name":"Virtual Festival","slug":"virtual-festival","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":287,"taxonomy":"tribe_events_cat","description":"","parent":0,"count":113,"filter":"raw","id":287,"urls":{"self":"https:\/\/canadianauthors.org\/national\/wp-json\/tribe\/events\/v1\/categories\/287","collection":"https:\/\/canadianauthors.org\/national\/wp-json\/tribe\/events\/v1\/categories"}}],"tags":[{"name":"Musdkoka Queer Film Festival","slug":"musdkoka-queer-film-festival","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":290,"taxonomy":"post_tag","description":"","parent":0,"count":1,"filter":"raw","id":290,"urls":{"self":"https:\/\/canadianauthors.org\/national\/wp-json\/tribe\/events\/v1\/tags\/290","collection":"https:\/\/canadianauthors.org\/national\/wp-json\/tribe\/events\/v1\/tags"}},{"name":"online events","slug":"online-events","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":289,"taxonomy":"post_tag","description":"","parent":0,"count":1,"filter":"raw","id":289,"urls":{"self":"https:\/\/canadianauthors.org\/national\/wp-json\/tribe\/events\/v1\/tags\/289","collection":"https:\/\/canadianauthors.org\/national\/wp-json\/tribe\/events\/v1\/tags"}},{"name":"queer films","slug":"queer-films","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":288,"taxonomy":"post_tag","description":"","parent":0,"count":1,"filter":"raw","id":288,"urls":{"self":"https:\/\/canadianauthors.org\/national\/wp-json\/tribe\/events\/v1\/tags\/288","collection":"https:\/\/canadianauthors.org\/national\/wp-json\/tribe\/events\/v1\/tags"}}],"venue":[],"organizer":[],"json_ld":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org","@type":"Event","name":"Muskoka Queer Film Festival Goes Virtual","description":"<p>Muskoka Queer Film Festival Goes Virtual Join us for the 2020 Edition of the Muskoka Queer Film Festival (MQFF) which, as a result of COVID-19, has pivoted to an on-line virtual film festival.
