This is a list of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer-related films that were directed by women.
LGBTQ-themed films directed by women – especially, but not exclusively, lesbian-themed movies – are an important and distinct subset of the genre.
[1] Academics have studied the issue of how women as directors contribute to the way lesbian stories, in particular, have been told;[2][3][4] while LGBTQ media, and to some extent the mainstream, have examined the difference a "female gaze" brings to a film.
[5][6][7][8] Telefilms and documentaries are included in the list.
English titles beginning with determiners "A", "An", and "The" are alphabetized by the first significant word.
