QUEERSCOPE DEBÜTPREIS VERLEIHUNG followed by a screening of the winning film.
An animated comedy adventure through the vastness of queer space.
The introverted Princess Saira, daughter of the lesbian queens, leaves her home planet Clitopolis to rescue her ex-girlfriend Kiki from the shackles of the Straight Withe Maliens. With only 24 hours to summon the only effective weapon, a Royal Double Axe, the symbol of lesbian power. Driven by the goal of saving Kiki, Princess Saira embarks on an intergay-lactic journey of self-discovery. With her quirky spaceship and newfound friendships, Saira defies not only her self-doubt, but also the patriarchal creatures she encounters outside Clitopolis. Emma Hough Hobbs and Leela Varghese won the Teddy Award 2025 with Lesbian Space Princess. The film is also being honored with this year's QueerScope Debut Film Award. The QueerScope Debut Film Award is being presented for the 10th time this year, and Lesbian Space Princess is the first animated film to win the award. In keeping with the double anniversary, the QFFM is hosting the festive award ceremony directly before the screening.
