Among the highly anticipated tent pole films is Who To Love [https://queensworldfilmfestival.org/films/who-to-love/] by Emmy, Grammy, and BAFTA winner Giorgio Testi, an international premiere that explores the struggles of a rising concert star grappling with mental health issues.

Another highlight is Freedom Hair [https://queensworldfilmfestival.org/films/freedom-hair/], directed by Oscar-nominated writer/director Dianne Houston.
