CHOOSE YOUR JOURNEY
These four Festival Journeys are just a starting point, our longtime festival attendees know that part of the fun is crafting their own path through the lineup, which means there are countless journeys waiting to be discovered.
MdFF Pride
Queer stories, creators, and characters
A celebration of queer stories, creators, and characters. This journey highlights LGBTQ+ perspectives across genres — from tender romances to radical documentaries to boundary-pushing experiments in form and identity.
Black Voices
Films by Black filmmakers
This journey through the festival uplifts the work of Black filmmakers across genres, styles, and perspectives. From bold new visions to deeply rooted stories, these films center Black creativity, community, and craft.
She/They Said
Women + nonbinary filmmakers in focus
Spotlighting films made by women and nonbinary filmmakers. This journey through the festival centers voices that challenge, affirm, and reimagine the world through every frame. Come see what they have to say.
WTF
The weird, the wild, and the wonderfully experimental
This journey is for the boundary-pushers, the genre-breakers, and the “what did I just watch?” moments that make MdFF unforgettable. If you’re into strange beauty and bold risk-taking, this one’s for you.
