Championing queer stories and talent in film

QueerFrames builds pathways, platforms, and narratives that expand representation and shape culture. We bring together storytellers, activists, and industry leaders globally, using film as a force for meaningful change.

 

With growing engagement across Asia and the Global South, it brings together storytellers, activists, and industry leaders to harness the power of film for meaningful social change through development labs, funding, research, and advocacy.

QUEERFRAMES SCREENWRITING LAB

Building space for queer storytelling behind the camera

At the heart of our work is the QueerFrames Screenwriting Lab, a flagship initiative nurturing queer talent behind the camera.

The Lab supports emerging queer writers and writer-directors from South and Southeast Asia and their diasporas with mentorship, creative resources, and industry access, enabling them to develop culturally resonant work and build sustainable careers.

Why It Matters

From India’s $61B screen industry to rapidly expanding markets across South and Southeast Asia, the region is experiencing a creative and commercial boom—yet queer storytellers remain largely excluded.

As global demand for authentic, diverse narratives grows, investing in queer Asian cinema is both urgent and strategic.

WHAT WE DO

Shaping new queer narratives

01

Investing in queer talent

Since 2023, QueerFrames has supported 22 writer-directors across South Asia and its diaspora, building a strong foundation for emerging queer voices.

Crafting new stories

Through its Short Film Fund, QueerFrames backed Makeup Room, developed within the 2023 cohort from inception.

Supporting advanced development

From the 2025 cohort, two features—Stacy’s Mom and Kooker Ki Seeti (The Whistle)—are advancing with expert mentorship and market-facing support.

Expanding global access & networks

A QueerFrames-led delegation to the 2025 European Film Market connected fellows with international industry platforms and opportunities. Alumni have since progressed to leading labs and festivals, including TorinoFilmLab (Green Narratives), Genre Film Lab, BFI Flare, Frameline, and Iris Prize.

Our philosophy

Guided by empathy. Grounded in simplicity. Crafted with care.

Warm & Human-centered

We believe that great design begins with listening. Rooted in empathy, functionality, and timeless crafting spaces that reflect your story.

Artistic & expressive

Every space tells a story. Our philosophy is to design with emotion, to sculpt interiors that resonate deeply with those who live in them.

Client-focused

You are our inspiration. We see design as a dialogue—balancing your vision with our expertise to shape interiors that feel as good as they look.

Our Process

Clear steps. Thoughtful rhythm.
Collaborative flow.

We integrate all processes, oversee the team, and make key decisions to ensure the timeline and budget are seamlessly executed.

01Research

We take time to understand your lifestyle, values, and aspirations — gathering insights that guide every decision ahead. Through conversations, site visits, and contextual studies, we build a clear foundation for a space that reflects not just how you live, but how you want to feel in your home.

As construction nears completion, Casa reviews the details to ensure everything aligns with our design vision. We then install furnishings and finishes—bringing your dream space to life.

In this creative phase, Casa Interiors develops floor plans, layouts, custom furnishings, and material suggestions. We present finishes, millwork details, and 3D visuals—collaborating closely to finalize every selection.

As construction nears completion, Casa conducts a final walkthrough with you to ensure every detail aligns with our design vision. We then install furnishings and finishing touches, transforming the space into your dream home.
