Haunted by the killing of his Palestinian childhood friend and fellow peace activist Aseel Aslih by Israeli police, Israeli filmmaker Roy Cohen creates an intimate cinematic letter across time. Drawing upon Aslih’s evocative teenage writings, Cohen revisits their friendship and searches his late friend’s words for the moral clarity and resilience needed to confront memory, complicity and the devastation unfolding in Israel and Palestine. Produced by Serge Gordey (Five Broken Cameras), Far From Maine is a deeply personal documentary about friendship, loss and the painful responsibility of looking unflinchingly at one’s own society.

Can’t make it to every screening in person? Our Virtual Cinema brings a curated selection of the festival to audiences across the United States, so you can experience powerful LGBTQ+ storytelling wherever you are.  Not every film is available to stream. Some titles are Virtual Cinema Exclusives, while others are available only during their in-person screening. Most in-person films become available online the following day and remain available throughout the Virtual Cinema Encore.  Streaming is available only within the United States, and some films have limited viewing capacity. Explore the catalog below to discover The World We’re Making—one story at a time.

Join us for virtual premieres, filmmaker Q&As, and special live events throughout the festival. Live events begin at their scheduled time and cannot be paused or rewound. Many films will also be available later through Virtual Cinema, subject to filmmaker availability.
