Mist aims to build stronger bonds within the queer community and with our allies. We do our best to create a space where you can showcase your talent, learn from other members of the community and be a part of the larger family. Mist runs solely on community events from members of the community and our allies and with the current situation, this has reduced by 70%. We have also learned technology for moving online is more expensive than a physical event. So we request you to help us reach our target to bring you a bigger and more fun PIQFF.

Unfortunately, we could not attend the screening of our film, FOREIGN at this festival but the entire experience with the programmers was utterly effortless, professional and so organized! I wish them the best and can't recommend them enough!
Unfortunately, I haven't been able to attend the festival for I live in Canada, but I was very delighted that our film "The Fruit of Our Womb" was part of it and won a price. Communication was great before the festival, however during and after it tends to lack. I understand though that they are a lot of volunteers with a lot to deal with!
Great to part of such a nice festival. They had a great line up of films from around the world. Thank you for making the effort to make festivals like this.
Nice ambience, great experience, responsible crew. Overall, I enjoyed the festival.
