The Priosma Queer Film Festival is set to host its third edition in Cork, Ireland, from September 10 to 13, 2026. Presented by Out of Frame Cork, this year's festival expands to a four-day programme, featuring LGBTQ+ cinema, engaging talks, and community events.

The festival's screenings will take place at Arc Cinema, Triskel Arts Centre, and The Everyman. The programme has grown significantly from three feature films in 2025 to nine feature films and 30 short films across four blocks. Highlights include the Irish premiere of "Six Months in a Pink and Blue Building" as the opening film, and the Cork premiere of Cara Holmes’ documentary "Lesbian Lines," which will be followed by a Q&A and an official afterparty.

Additional featured films include the Croatian drama "Beautiful Evening, Beautiful Day" and the Irish documentary "Dragging Up the Past," which explores Cork’s drag history and will be followed by a discussion. The festival will also showcase four short-film programmes, with awards presented for Best Irish Short, Best International Short, Best Cork Short, and the Spirit of the Festival Award. The closing night at The Everyman will feature the Irish premiere of David Moragas’ "Another Man," followed by a new show, "Krissy Down Under," by Cork drag collective Krystal & The Queers.
