Discover Koktail\u2019s handpicked list of 13 underrated international queer films to add to your Pride Month watchlist.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s Pride Month, which means one thing is guaranteed: your feed is about to be flooded with the annual wave of LGBTQ+ movie recommendations.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You already know the usual suspects: <em>Brokeback Mountain<\/em> (2005), <em>My Own Private Idaho<\/em> (1991), the glorious filth of <em>Pink Flamingos<\/em> (1972) and all the other go-to titles that crowd the conversation. But separating &#8220;queer cinema&#8221; from the rest of film history is pointless anyway \u2013 it\u2019s all just great cinema.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Koktail is skipping the obvious Hollywood blockbusters to bring you a list of criminally underrated, strictly international gems (with a Thai cinema deep-dive coming very soon). These films might not all fit neatly into a ready-made box; they inhabit a world of shifting identities and untamed desires that happily ignore the boundaries set by polite society.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-1-13-i-saw-the-tv-glow-2024\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">1\/13 I Saw the TV Glow (2024)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-1 wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"h-1-13-i-saw-the-tv-glow-2024-dir-jane-schoenbrun\" style=\"color:#949292\"><strong>dir.

As time folds in on itself, the series begins to haunt Owen\u2019s everyday life, blurring the line between media fantasy and what he believes, or at least would like to believe, is reality.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"596\" src=\"https:\/\/www.koktailmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/4-3-1024x596.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-27775\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.koktailmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/4-3-1024x596.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.koktailmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/4-3-300x175.png 300w, https:\/\/www.koktailmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/4-3-768x447.png 768w, https:\/\/www.koktailmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/4-3.png 1440w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The film\u2019s references to <em>Buffy the Vampire Slayer<\/em> and other late-1990s genre shows are apparent, serving as a framework through which it explores gender dysphoria, alienation and the consequences of denying one\u2019s own identity. Few recent films have articulated the paralysis of internal repression quite this painfully.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-2-13-a-bride-for-rip-van-winkle-2016\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">2\/13 A Bride for Rip Van Winkle (2016) <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-2 wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"h-2-13-a-bride-for-rip-van-winkle-2016-dir-shunji-iwai\" style=\"color:#949292\"><strong>dir.

But <em>A Bride for Rip Van Winkle <\/em>(2016) hums at a different frequency. The greens and pale golds of <em>Lily Chou-Chou<\/em> give way to a tide of lilac purple \u2013 melancholic, feverishly romantic even. Classical music, mostly by Mozart and Chopin, curls through the film with Iwai\u2019s distinctive lyricism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"596\" src=\"https:\/\/www.koktailmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/5-3-1024x596.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-27776\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.koktailmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/5-3-1024x596.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.koktailmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/5-3-300x175.png 300w, https:\/\/www.koktailmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/5-3-768x447.png 768w, https:\/\/www.koktailmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/5-3.png 1440w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nanami (Haru Kuroki) is a lonely soul seeking intimacy online before getting engaged to Tetsuya (Go Jibiki). But her loneliness has a way of emptying a wedding hall. Faced with a barren guest list, Nanami hires strangers to play her friends and family on the big day. What begins as staged companionship opens onto something far more fragile: the possibility of love and the cruelty of discovering how easily love itself can become a performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-3-13-thanatos-drunk-2015\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">3\/13 Thanatos, Drunk (2015)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-3 wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"h-3-13-thanatos-drunk-2015-dir-chang-tso-chi\" style=\"color:#949292\"><strong>dir.

Together, they endure the tumults of society and the aimlessness of life in constant survival mode while their mother (L\u00fc Hsueh-feng) drinks herself to death.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-4-13-love-exposure-2008\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">4\/13 Love Exposure (2008)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-4 wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"h-4-13-love-exposure-2008-dir-sion-sono\" style=\"color:#949292\"><strong>dir. Sion Sono<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Frequently hailed as one of the best films of the century \u2013 and trying to speak with as little bias as possible, I think there is a genuine case for it \u2013 Sion Sono\u2019s four-hour epic is a sweeping proclamation of the triumph of love. Featuring a meta-textual soundtrack by the now-defunct Yura Yura Teikoku, the film is an absolute pinnacle of maximalist, multipart storytelling.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"596\" src=\"https:\/\/www.koktailmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/7-1-1024x596.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-27778\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.koktailmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/7-1-1024x596.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.koktailmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/7-1-300x175.png 300w, https:\/\/www.koktailmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/7-1-768x447.png 768w, https:\/\/www.koktailmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/7-1.png 1440w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, what\u2019s the actual plot of <em>Love Exposure<\/em>? Y\u016b (Takahiro Nishijima), a boy plagued by a uniquely Catholic crisis, has no sins, which means he can&#8217;t participate in the daily confessions demanded by his devout priest father (Atsuro Watabe). To fix this, he decides to sin with absolute dedication, eventually weaponising his perversion into kung-fu upskirt photography.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"596\" src=\"https:\/\/www.koktailmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/8-1-1024x596.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-27779\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.koktailmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/8-1-1024x596.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.koktailmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/8-1-300x175.png 300w, https:\/\/www.koktailmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/8-1-768x447.png 768w, https:\/\/www.koktailmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/8-1.png 1440w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But when a lost bet forces him into drag, he encounters Yoko (Hikari Mitsushima) and instantly falls in love. The catch? She thinks he&#8217;s a woman. This sparks a chaotic chain reaction of cross-dressing, cult conspiracies, Christian iconography and messy infatuations. Frankly, it\u2019s a film you owe it to yourself to watch at least once before you die.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-5-13-water-lilies-2007\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">5\/13 Water Lilies (2007)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-5 wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"h-5-13-water-lilies-2007-dir-celine-sciamma\" style=\"color:#949292\"><strong>dir.

It marks the first time in Sciamma\u2019s filmography that we encounter the talented Ad\u00e8le Haenel, who went on to develop a long professional relationship with the director.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"596\" src=\"https:\/\/www.koktailmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/9-1-1024x596.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-27780\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.koktailmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/9-1-1024x596.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.koktailmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/9-1-300x175.png 300w, https:\/\/www.koktailmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/9-1-768x447.png 768w, https:\/\/www.koktailmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/9-1.png 1440w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The film follows Marie (Pauline Acquart) as she becomes increasingly drawn to Floriane (Ad\u00e8le Haenel), a member of the local synchronised swimming team, during a languid summer at the neighbourhood pool. It\u2019s a story about the moment adolescence tips into passion \u2013 that tangled business of desire that only French filmmakers like Sciamma can capture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-6-13-y-tu-mama-tambien-2001\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">6\/13 Y Tu Mam\u00e1 Tambi\u00e9n (2001)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-6 wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"h-6-13-y-tu-mama-tambien-2001-dir-alfonso-cuaron\" style=\"color:#949292\"><strong>dir.

Cuar\u00f3n captures this incredibly raw youth culture, but undercuts it with a non-diegetic passage of time that makes closeness feel completely out of reach, even when trapped together on a road trip. It\u2019s definitely not a standard coming-of-age story about discovery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"596\" src=\"https:\/\/www.koktailmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/10-1-1024x596.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-27781\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.koktailmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/10-1-1024x596.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.koktailmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/10-1-300x175.png 300w, https:\/\/www.koktailmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/10-1-768x447.png 768w, https:\/\/www.koktailmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/10-1.png 1440w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Two teenage friends, Julio (Gael Garc\u00eda Bernal) and Tenoch (Diego Luna), set off on a spontaneous road trip with Luisa (Maribel Verd\u00fa), an older woman who unexpectedly joins their swaggering, somewhat delusional summer escape.&nbsp; While chasing a mythical beach, they end up stumbling into a harsh lesson about growing up too fast and sharing a kiss with the last person they ever expected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-7-13-beau-travail-1999\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">7\/13 Beau Travail (1999)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-7 wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"h-7-13-beau-travail-1999-dir-claire-denis\" style=\"color:#949292\"><strong>dir.

It\u2019s a hypnotic portrait of repressed desire that serves as a perfect final bow for \u014cshima&#8217;s career.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"596\" src=\"https:\/\/www.koktailmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/14-1024x596.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-27785\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.koktailmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/14-1024x596.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.koktailmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/14-300x175.png 300w, https:\/\/www.koktailmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/14-768x447.png 768w, https:\/\/www.koktailmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/14.png 1440w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-11-13-happy-together-1997\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">11\/13 Happy Together (1997)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-11 wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"h-11-13-happy-together-1997-dir-wong-kar-wai\" style=\"color:#949292\"><strong>dir.

Lovers Lai Yiu-fai (Tony Leung) and Ho Po-wing (the iconic Leslie Cheung, may he rest in peace) arrive from Hong Kong hoping to fix things, but instead slide right back into a cycle of intense codependency and cruel mind games. As Yiu-fai scrapes together plane fare, Po-wing continuously pulls him back into his toxic orbit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"596\" src=\"https:\/\/www.koktailmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/15-1024x596.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-27786\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.koktailmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/15-1024x596.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.koktailmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/15-300x175.png 300w, https:\/\/www.koktailmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/15-768x447.png 768w, https:\/\/www.koktailmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/15.png 1440w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-12-13-blue-1993\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">12\/13 Blue (1993)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-12 wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"h-12-13-blue-1993-dir-derek-jarman\" style=\"color:#949292\"><strong>dir.
