well - if you already have a QGIS project, I would try QGIS server
first. You need a recent QGIS though. If you go to the project
properties, the last tab is for WMS settings. Be sure to narrow down the
CRS to those you really need.

Along with QGIS server, there is QGIS webclient - which is basically a
regular WMS client (based on OpenLayers and GeoExt) but can also do
proprietary printing, if your QGIS project contains a layout. QGIS
webclient can also do object highlighting using vector data delivered
from GetFeatureInfo requests.

QGIS client can be downloaded from
https://github.com/qgis/qgis-web-client with a git clone.

You need to follow the readme for the global configuration.

You can find examples of QGIS server and QGIS webclient at
http://gis.uster.ch/

Your other request, the filtering, is not yet part of QGIS webclient.
QGIS server can do filtering using a filter syntax in GetMap and
GetPrint requests. You would have to extend QGIS webclient to offer a
GUI to do the filtering. The server part of the filtering is already there.

If you have questions, please ask at the QGIS user mailinglist. We are
here to assist you if you need help.

Geosever could also generate the output in the Openlayers format (some basic functionality). But, if you need some extra interactivity (client side functionality) with the maps, you have to enrich the generated output with extra coding ...
