Welcome to Bent Lenses

Bent Lenses was established to fill the void of queer and alternative cinema available in the Canberra region. We hold regular screenings at the Canberra Museum & Gallery in Civic and host BentFest (formerly the Capital Queer Film Festival) annually in November.

Bent Lenses is a non-profit organisation run entirely by volunteers.
