Synopsis
Awarded LGBTQIA+ cinema’s highest honour at Berlin, this rip-roaring comedy centres on Saira, introvert heir to the throne of planet Clitopolis. She’s still reeling from being dumped by her hot bounty hunter girlfriend, Kiki, when Kiki is kidnapped by the “Straight White Maliens”. Steeling herself, Saira recruits the help of an enby popstar and a cantankerous boomer spaceship and launches a mission to rescue Kiki and, she hopes, win her back. The love child of Adelaide’s Leela Varghese and Emma Hough Hobbs, complete with a stellar voice cast including Shabana Azeez (Birdeater, SFF 2023), Richard Roxburgh, and the Aunty Donna boys, Lesbian Space Princess, is a one-of-a-kind, out of this world triumph.

Sydney Film festival acknowledges Australia’s First Nations People as the Traditional Owners and Custodians of the land, and pay respect to the Gadigal people of the Eora Nation, upon whose Country SFF is based.
