About us

Welcome to One Fluid Night (OFN), an international LGBTQIA+ film festival taking place across London. OFN presents queer cinema from around the world, bringing together filmmakers, audiences, and stories that explore identity, relationships, and the many realities of LGBTQIA+ life.

​

Founded by Lex Melony and produced under LEXME Media Group, OFN is a queer led, volunteer run film festival that launched in London in 2022. Since then it has grown into an international platform for queer filmmakers, with two editions each year: the London edition held every April and the Paris edition launched in November 2025.

The festival programme includes international short films, feature films, documentaries, animations, and series created by LGBTQIA+ storytellers from different countries and cultures. Many screenings include filmmaker Q&A sessions and conversations with the audience. In selected programmes viewers can also vote for their favourite film, awarding the Audience Choice prize, Best Fluid Story.

Screenings take place across several venues in London, creating spaces where audiences can discover new queer cinema, meet filmmakers, and connect with others who care about independent film and LGBTQIA+ storytelling.

OFN is built by a collective of volunteers who believe in the importance of queer storytelling and independent cinema. Together we create a platform where voices from different cultures and perspectives can be seen and heard. If you would like to be part of the OFN family, you can join us as an international judge or volunteer for our London and Paris editions.
