Lesbian Space Princess

Australian sci-fi comedy animation film by Emma Hough Hobbs & Leela Varghese.

The introverted princess Saira, daughter of the lesbian queens of the planet Clitopolis, is devastated: the hot bounty hunter Kiki has broken up with her - out of sheer boredom! Yet Saira made her such a beautiful relationship album! But when Kiki is kidnapped by the Straight White Maliens, the Incels of the future, Saira has to leave the safe space of queer space and buy her freedom within 24 hours: For the Maliens demand the famous royal Labrys - a golden double axe of almost unbelievable lesbian power. The only problem... Saira doesn't have it!

Stunningly funny, brightly colored, euphoric, uncompromisingly queer: the first feature film by Australian directing duo Leela Varghese and Emma Hough Hobbs is a rousing intergalactic journey of self-discovery with a big heart and a lust for riot, somewhere between a wild sci-fi musical comedy and a wholesome coming-of-age adventure. It won the Teddy Award at the Berlinale 2025 and 2nd place in the Panorama Audience Award. Great fun for the whole family, without a doubt! However, the morality watchdogs at the FSK say it's rated 16+ - for reasons as mysterious as infinite space.

Australia 2025, 86 min. - FSK 16 - Director & screenplay: Emma Hough Hobbs, Leela Varghese

A space princess is thrust out of her sheltered life and into a galactic quest to save her bounty hunter ex-girlfriend from the Straight White Maliens.

When an introverted princess is forced out of her comfort zone, she finds herself on a wild intergalactic journey filled with drag queens, pop stars, and problematic spaceships. Along the way, she confronts her deepest anxieties and discovers that saving the gay-laxy might just start with saving herself. Think Rick and Morty meets Sailor Moon - with more glitter, more sex jokes, and 100% more lesbians.
