Pride Flix was an independent film label founded in 2016 with the aim of promoting queer content. The label primarily focused on distributing films that explored LGBTQ+ themes and stories, releasing them on DVD for home audiences. Although Pride Flix gained some traction within the queer community, the label ceased operations after a few years. History Pride Flix was established in 2016 during a time when independent LGBTQ+ cinema was gaining visibility. The label released several films on DVD, targeting both niche markets and broader audiences who were interested in LGBTQ+ narratives. Pride Flix also collaborated with film festivals and queer advocacy organizations to promote their titles. Releases Pride Flix curated works that represented a wide range of LGBTQ+ experiences. Its catalog included dramas, comedies, and documentaries that tackled themes such as love, identity, and activism. Some of the more popular releases included: * Rainbow Dreams (2016) - A coming-of-age drama exploring the life of a queer teenager in a conservative town. * Beyond the Binary (2017) - A documentary exploring non-binary and genderqueer identities. * Love Wins (2018) - A romantic comedy about two women navigating life and love in a big city. Decline and closure Despite its initial success, Pride Flix faced financial challenges and increasing competition from streaming platforms, which began to dominate the independent film market. With fewer audiences purchasing physical DVDs and the rise of digital distribution, the label struggled to maintain its operations. By the early 2020s, Pride Flix had ceased releasing new titles, and the company dissolved.
