P(L)AY IT FORWARD

In 2025, we celebrate our 35th anniversary—a milestone in our commitment to showcasing queer stories through film.

To mark this exciting year, we’re introducing P(L)AY IT FORWARD, a fundraising campaign fueling the future of Inside Out and queer cinema.

By donating to P(L)AY IT FORWARD, you’re helping us fund not only our 35th anniversary festival in Toronto, but also celebratory retrospective screenings and events that will unfold throughout the year.

In addition to supporting our 35th year, donations to P(L)AY IT FORWARD will also support our four strategic festival pillars of Industry Development, Programming and Exhibition, Equity and Accessibility and Community Engagement.

The future of Inside Out depends on the generosity of our community. Your contributions have kept Inside Out alive and thriving - please help us ensure the next 35 years are just as groundbreaking!
