==History==
===2019===
Lesflicks was founded in March 2019 by Naomi Bennett, a longtime lesbian lifestyle blogger based in the U.K., aiming to create a Netflix-style platform for LGBTQ+ women’s cinema. Following the successful launch of three film clubs, a number of private collaborative screenings and the creation of the comprehensive film database; the video on demand platform launched on Saturday, July 20th 2019, which Bennett announced while attending lesbian arts festival, LFest in 2019. In its first nine months, Lesflicks supported 74 LBQ shorts and features, participated in 34 events and filled 830 seats in screenings across the country.
===2020===
During the COVID-19 pandemic, Lesflicks got involved with a global virtual lesbian festival to support artists, filmmakers, musicians and comedians who may have lost work due to the virus. As well, Lesflicks boosted its content rapidly, having almost 80 titles as of November 2020, compared to having only 10 titles when Britain’s first lockdown began. When the pandemic hit, Bennett pivoted the entire business online, hosting 140 online events by the end of 2020.15. Forbes, Molly Sprayregen
