The GAZE on Tour 2020 Irish LGBT shorts programme spans an array of Irish talent from all sides of the border creating an excitingly diverse collection of drama, animation and documentary.

This programme, curated for GAZE festival 2020, reflects the diverse spectrum of voices and the distinct experiences of the Irish LGBTQI+ community. GAZE is committed to promoting these voices outside of the festival, and is proud to include the programme in its GAZE on Tour season through the IFI International programme.
