What to Watch at the Upcoming BFI Flare: London LGBT Film Festival 2015 - Our Top 10
BFI Flare is coming back for 2015 (19 - 29 March) with an exciting line-up offering a taste of the best queer cinema from around the world. Like last year, the films are grouped into 3 main sections: Hearts (films about love, romance and friendship), Bodies (stories of sex, identity and transformation) and Mind (reflections of art, politics and community).
