Review: New Irish Shorts at Gaze
2026's New Irish Shorts are urgent and heartfelt. Familiar queer tales of tradition and family come in new shapes and sizes as Khushi Jain reviews.
For over three decades, GAZE has been a cornerstone of Ireland’s LGBTQIA community. Founded in 1992, before homosexuality was decriminalised, it has grown into an internationally recognised platform for bold queer and trans storytelling. Each year, the festival showcases over 100 films alongside panels and events connecting filmmakers and audiences. Celebrating stories that are tender, radical, and everything in between, GAZE continues to shape Ireland’s queer film landscape.
