In their own words, the Q-Fest students detail the immersion experience through a series of blogs published right here. Through their writing, the Student Programmers detail the before, the during, and the after of their two-week immersion; encapsulating sparkling reflections of identity, challenging new sights and feelings, and the mesmeric narratives of film and culture. These blogs are pensive, personable, and political in experience as each student takes on the task to express the breadth and depth of Queerness that shapes and reshapes who they are.
