Buckle up your glitter belts: Lesbian Space Princess has officially landed at LIAF after snatching the coveted Teddy Award at this year’s Berlin International Film Festival. Join us for this very special preview screening before it lands on the big screens for a wider UK theatrical release in 2026.
Heartbreak. Kidnapping. Gay-pop idols. And one impossibly needy space princess blasting through the cosmos on an intergalactic mission to save her bounty hunter ex-girlfriend from the Straight White Maliens. A riotous, candy-coloured animated comedy adventure through the vastness of queer space.
The film follows Princess Saira, recently dumped by her impossibly cool girlfriend Kiki for being a little too needy. But just as Saira is perfecting her sulk, Kiki calls in with a galactic-level problem: she’s been kidnapped by the misogynist alien bros known as the Straight White Maliens. Their ransom demand? One of the most powerful weapons in all of lesbian kind.
Cue Saira’s reluctant-but-fabulous quest across the galaxies, complete with dangerous missions, starry-eyed encounters with gay-pop idols, and musical numbers that absolutely slap. Part space opera, part rom-com, part glitter-fueled fever dream, Lesbian Space Princess is a love letter to queer resilience and messy, magical relationships— with enough camp to fuel a rocket. The result? A queer comedy-musical that has critics and audiences alike laughing, singing, and crying gay tears of joy.
The screening will be followed by a pre-recorded Q&A with filmmakers
