True False 2016 - Voices from the Q

KBIA

Published March 7, 2016 at 4:37 PM CST

One of the defining images of the True/False Film Fest is the Q line. Scores. sometimes hundreds, of moviegoers line up behind rainbow cutouts of the letter Q to try and get into screenings throughout the weekend. They are guided and shepherded Q Queens, loud and loudly dressed, who answer questions and handout the highly prized Q slips.

Here are some of the sights and sounds from the Q at the 2016 True/False Film Fest.

Early risers stand in the Q inside the First Presbyterian Church for an early morning screening of "The Pearl" on Saturday, March 5.

Q line wraps into the alleyway beside the Blue Note before the screening of "The Fear of 13" on Saturday, March 5.

Moviegoers line up in the Q inside Jesse Hall hours before the final screening of "Sonita" on Sunday, March 6.
