“On the Way to Leo” at the 3rd Les Fest
Our film continues traveling around the world and we are happy to share that we are in the official selection of the 3rd Lesbian Film Festival in Peru, which reaffirms the good reception that this documentary feature film about the emotional journey of a mother and her family to support the gender transition of her son Leo, who also had the help of many allies, friends and colleagues to affirm himself as the trans boy he is.
Many thanks to Verónica Ferrari, programmer of Les Fest and her team of collaborators for giving us the opportunity to make this valuable work visible to their audience, who will undoubtedly connect in a powerful and unique way, like the story of this film.
LESFEST is the first lesbian film festival in Peru, dedicated to promoting and making visible feminist and queer narratives through cinema. Its third edition, scheduled for April 2026 in Lima, includes short film competitions and seeks to strengthen audiovisual creation led by women and non-heterosexuals. The event positions itself as a crucial space for identity and cultural expression in the country.
