The International Film Festival Rotterdam is celebrating its 50th anniversary! As before GayRotterdam is your guide to the most interesting LGBTQ+ related films at the IFFR. One of those films is ‘Madalena’ by Brazilian director Madiano Marcheti. Seeing and reviewing this film gave us the chance to explore Brazilian culture and talk to Marcheti about his experience making the film and his approach to telling the stories of Brazil’s trans people.

You haven’t really experienced gay night life in Rotterdam without having been to the Keerweer! For years Café de Keerweer – named after the street the cafe is situated on - has been one of the most well-known gay bars of Rotterdam. Although the Keerweer opens its doors as early as 16.00 the fun really starts after midnight.

The 1st Queer & Feminist Poetry Awards will take place on September 27th and will award poets and spoken word artists from across the Netherlands whose works talk about LGBTQ+ identities and feminism.
