Sapphic Creators Network
For sapphic content creators, we aim to connect, network and support the collaboration of creators to enable projects to be as successful as possible.
Sourcing diverse sapphic stories to screen to in person audiences
We identified that many film banks have few sapphic titles available to hire for film screenings. So we’re proud to create a sapphic film bank with a wide range of films available to screen. Perfect for LGBT History Month, Pride Month, Coming Out Day – and any other day of the year!
