TILDE is one of the few trans and Gender Diverse (TGD) film festivals in the world, andthe only one in the southern hemisphere.

TILDE’s 2024 festival attracted its largest in-person audience to date and featured 24 films including multiple world, international and Australian premieres. We believe in the value of working with and investing in filmmakers and artists as well as audiences, to help ensure the future of trans and gender expansive storytelling.
