DistributionFrameline Distribution is the only nonprofit distributor that solely caters to LGBTQ+ film. Our organization has over 250 award winning films and we have partnerships with universities, public libraries, film festivals, and community groups. Youth In Motion is a program that provides free LGBTQ+-themed films and curriculum resources to various educational institutions. Frameline Voices is our program that showcases diverse LGBTQ+ stories with an emphasis on films by and about people of color, transgender people, youth, and elders. Frameline has commissioned or partnered on 10 restorations of canonical queer films, revealing crisp details and deeply saturated colors as they were intended to be seen. Framelines restorations are available for theatrical bookings, exhibition and can be screened on streaming platforms.

ARTIST DEVELOPMENTSince 1990, approximately 200 films and videos have been completed with assistance from the Frameline Completion Fund. Grants are awarded annually and provide much-needed support to filmmakers for their final editing and lab work. Once completed, these films often go on to receive international exposure. Submissions include documentary, educational, narrative, animation, and experimental projects about LGBTQ+ people and their communities.
