THREE FLYING PIGLETS

3FP Planet Logo

We are an imperfect group of gay and bi men making films on health issues that matter to us, and affordable (and gratis) films for the wider LGBT+ community and allies. Self-taught, always learning and often addressing challenging subject matter, we are passionate about the use of film to better connect us to our health and well-being needs.

Most importantly, we don’t pretend to be professional filmmakers rather spirited amateurs. We also believe films don’t have to go somewhere or have a big message. We’re just a bunch of queer, poz, and gay men who write, make films, tell stories, and do stuff.

We have a broad repertoire, including films on health and wellbeing, recreational drug use and chemsex, HIV academic research, LGBT issues, and sexual health. We write original scripts and are volunteers both in front of and behind the camera.

You don’t need any specialist knowledge to join us, just bring commitment, a sense of humour and a willingness to learn on the hoof. Some of us are living with HIV and/ or HCV (Hepatitis C) so – above all – this is our narrative and our story.

“So lovely working with you and your team! Thank you so much for providing all your time, effort and patience. We cannot thank you enough!”

“The Piglets were a joy to work with on the films for our legal app, and 50th anniversary celebrations. They dealt with all of our demands (and last minute changes!) with a smile – nothing was too much trouble. We can’t wait for the next project!” .”
