Accolades: Only Love Matters

March 10, 2023 Team KQMovies London No Comments News UEA Spark Award

Tagline: Romance and love discovered in a book – a journey of secrets, acceptance, and the unbreakable bond between a mother and daughter.

Only Love Matters is the first film in British cinema history to have lead intersex characters. The film had its UK premiere on the 27th October at BFI Southbank, London, UK. The world premiere happened in Marbella, Spain in the first week of October and a regional premiere during Southampton Film Week in Solent University’s cinema in November 2023.  Brunel University London arranged a special screening of the film on 26th October (World Intersex Awareness Day).

Only Love Matters has done phenomenally well on the film festival circuit and has won over 30 awards including Best Director, Best Producer, Best Feature Film, Best Screenplay, Best Production Design, Best Actress, Best Editing, Best Cinematography, Best Makeup, Best Romantic film, Best Women film, Best Message and Best Original Idea.

The film does not have LGBT theme, though it discusses the blurred lines between LGBT and intersex people. The United Nations explains, “Up to 1.7 percent of babies are born with sex characteristics that don’t fit typical definitions of male and female.” Link: https://www.ohchr.org/en/2016/10/intersex-awareness-day-wednesday-26-october

The film has received excellent coverage and interest from academia as well and was discussed at Southern Illinois University (US), University of Westminster, University of Reading (UK), Brunel University London, Ravensbourne University London, Autonomous University of Barcelona (Spain); Nagoya University (Japan); Intersex: New Interdisciplinary Approaches research group (INIA, supported by European Commission); to name just a few and also winning an Engagement award and being a finalist for Innovation and Impact award at the University of East Anglia.
