Main Client Base
The annual Festival's main client base includes members of the GLBTI (Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender and Intersex) communities, film industry people, sponsors, media, film buffs and the general public. Many of these patrons who are from outer suburban and regional areas, as well as interstate would not have the opportunity to see these films outside the Festival, as these films rarely receive commercial release.

“What is done for science must also be done for art: accepting undesirable side effects for the sake of the main goal, and moreover diminishing their importance by making this main goal more magnificent. For one should reform forward, not backward: social illnesses, revolutions, are evolutions inhibited by a conserving stupidity.”
—Robert Musil (1880–1942)
“A client is to me a mere unit, a factor in a problem.”
—Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859–1930)
“It is a base thing for a man among the people not to obey those in command. Never in a state can the laws be well administered when fear does not stand firm.”
—Sophocles (497–406/5 B.C.)
