We’re excited to announce a milestone in the next chapter of our annual queer film festival! Damn These Heels Queer Film Festival has been renamed Utah Queer Film Festival (UQFF), marking the festival’s growth and commitment to representing Utah’s diverse LGBTQIA+ community and its allies. This name change highlights the festival’s evolution and alignment with its vision of greater inclusion, intention, and impact.

WE loved welcoming you to Utah Queer Film Festival!

In October 2024, we celebrated our first year as Utah Queer Film Festival and our 21st year of highlighting LGBTQIA+ stories from local to international filmmakers. Check out some of our favorite photos from the weekend.

Utah Queer Film Festival explores LGBTQ+ life, ideas, and art through dramatic and documentary films from around the world. For over 20 years, the Festival (formerly Damn These Heels) has provided Utah’s queer community with access to films and events that celebrate, inspire, and highlight queer stories, queer history, and queer joy.
