So we present Love Bites, a series of shorts that redefine the vampire genre through a fresh lens. Featuring lesbian vampire films from queer filmmakers centring the female gaze – a celebration of identity and raw passion, bursting with vibrant visuals and captivating narratives.
We invite you to savour this curated programme that deconstructs a centuries-old genre, paying homage to exploitation films and putting lesbian desire and hunger in focus.
Followed by a DJ set from Sexy Lady Massive at the Rich Mix bar, with added tooth gems if you want to bare your fangs.
Programmed in collaboration with London College of Communication.
