Tello Films—the longest-running sapphic streaming platform and longest-running internet-first LGBTQ streaming service—celebrates its 19th anniversary on February 6. Founded in 2007, Tello Films has spent nearly two decades creating and curating original lesbian and sapphic series, films, documentaries, and shorts at a time when this content was largely absent from mainstream platforms. Why it matters now As conversations around representation, independent media, and audience-driven streaming continue to evolve, Tello Films stands out as an early pioneer that proved niche, community-focused platforms can thrive long-term. The platform has earned multiple Emmy nominations, including recognition for Secs & EXECS and Riley Parra, and has become a beloved destination for lesbian holiday films such as Season of Love and Christmas at the Ranch. Beyond awards, Tello’s impact is rooted in sustainability—remaining independently owned while serving a loyal global audience hungry for authentic LGBTQ+ storytelling that isn’t sidelined or erased.
