The 6 Queer Short Films at Sundance 2026
Of the 28 total films I watched, just six of them were queer or featured queer characters in some way.
Prometheus Trap (2012)
In the future, mankind's quest for answers will take them to the edge of the universe... but the knowledge they seek should never be known.
