List Of LGBT-related Films Directed By Women
This is a list of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender-related films that were directed by women.

Telefilms and documentaries are included in the list. Films co-directed with men are not included. Titles beginning with determiners "A", "An", and "The" are alphabetized by the first significant word. 0–9 * ''2 Seconds'' (1998, Canada) by Manon Briand * '' A 20th Century Chocolate Cake'' (1983, Canada) by Lois Siegel * '' 3 Generations'' (2015, United States) by Gaby Dellal * ''52 Tuesdays'' (2014, Australia) by Sophie Hyde * ''533 Statements'' (2006, Canada) by Tori Foster A * ...
