Bring A Deeper Love
to Your Community

A Deeper Love is an award-winning documentary following trailblazing performer and activist Peppermint across nearly a decade.

What began as a portrait of one person slowly became something larger: a living record of queer friendship, chosen family, artistic survival, nightlife, performance, visibility, and the communities that hold people together while the world around them keeps changing.

Following screenings at over a dozen acclaimed film festivals Frameline (San Francisco), NewFest (New York), SIFF (Seatte), Queer Screen (Australia), Roze Filmdagen (Amsterdam), Inside Out (Toronto), Kashish Pride Mumbai - we are continuing to expand the film’s community and educational screening program internationally.

WHY HOST A
SCREENING?

Some films entertain audiences for an evening. Others create conversations that continue long after people leave the room.

A Deeper Love has consistently brought together diverse audiences around conversations about:

  • identity and belonging

  • queer history and visibility

  • chosen family and community care

  • nightlife and artistic survival

  • documentary filmmaking and storytelling

  • performance, resilience, and self-invention

Every screening takes shape differently depending on the community around it.

Some become emotional intergenerational conversations. Others feel celebratory, intimate, or deeply personal.
Many audiences describe the experience as unexpectedly human, funny, vulnerable, and emotionally immersive.
