Looking back at the 2018 LGBTQ films, many stood out and caught our hearts. We remember “Love, Simon”, one of the most popular films during the Shanghai International Film Festival (SIFF). “Sorry Angel” and “Girl” impressed the audience deeply during the Cannes Film Festival. We also saw some great Chinese films, such as “Dear Ex” which started a heated discussion online. We cannot stop talking about the Oscar Winners, including “Green Book”, “Bohemian Rhapsody”, and “The Favorite”. Let us not forget about the Teddy Jury Award Winner, “A Dog Barking at the Moon”.
