Frameline49 index of films

Final tally: I saw all ten shorts programs (except a handful of shorts that were not availalble for advance screening), plus the two streaming-only shorts programs. I saw 56 out of 73 feature-length programs, and in total 66 out of 71 short films.

The list is broken down by category: feature-length documentaries, narrative features, documentary and non-fiction shorts, and narrative shorts. Each title links to the Film Queen Review write-up, which provides further links to Frameline, IMDb, social media, and other related info. Some films are listed more than once under different variations of the title. The short films are listed alphabetically; for a list divided into the groupings as screened at Frameline, see the index of Frameline49 shorts programs.
