QFest New Jersey LGBTQ Film and Digital Media Festival strives to support and promote LGBTQ film & digital media, the individuals who create it, and the people and stories they highlight. Festival submissions must have content about or connection to the LGBTQ community with preference given to unreleased work, work by New Jersey residents, and work that exemplifies artistic expression (in multiple forms), education or inclusion.

Entry categories are Feature Film, Feature Short Film, Feature Documentary, Feature Short Documentary, Music Video, Student Film, Student Short Film, and Micro Videos.
