The Reelout Queer Film Festival is an annual LGBTQ film festival in Kingston, Ontario.[1][2]
The festival was established in 1999 by Marney McDiarmid, a Queen's University graduate, with resource assistance from both the university and Ontario Public Interest Research Group.[3] In the first year, films were screened at the city's gay bar, Club 477.[3] In its second year, the festival moved to the Screening Room theatre, which has remained its primary venue ever since;[3] the volunteers at the 2000 festival included Matt Salton, now the festival's director.[4]
In 2010, the festival was briefly the subject of controversy when its application to present a program of short films directed by women at the Kingston Women's Art Festival was denied.[5]
