> Hi everyone..
>
> We're holding a queer film festival in Bangalore this year on 27th and
> 28th Feb, 2010. This is the second in the series but the first time  
> that
> we are ourselves going out to look for films on queer themes (gay,
> lesbian, bisexual, transgender, transsexual, lady boys, drag, F2M, M2F
> -- basically _anything_ that could be called queer) from across  
> India, 
> Asia and anywhere else in the world.
>
> The festival is a community-driven effort and we have looked for
> sponsorship only as far as the venue and basic costs. The point of the
> festival is to draw a large audience and screen good films with gay,
> lesbian, bisexual and transgender stories, that people might not have
> easy access to. So if you have made any such film or would know of  
> other
> filmmakers who would be interested, do forward this call to them. We  
> are
> also looking for people who would like to curate a small package of
> films from different countries (or themes). And we will have a photo
> exhibit so still images are also welcome.
>
> I'm attaching a formal call for films from the festival, but right now
> do email me (namita at altlawforum.org) if you're interested in either
> sending your own film or photographs or want to send a package of  
> films
> by different filmmakers.
>
> And ofcourse -- Happy new year and hope you had a good time... :-)
>
> take care,
> Namita

> About the organisers: The three groups involved are Good As You (GAY),
> Swabhava (an organisation that works on sexuality and carries out
> trainings and sensitisation surrounding sexuality issues, and WHAQ (a
> support group for lesbian, bisexual and transgendered women). If you
> need any further details on the festival, please let me know. Our
> official email id is blrqueerfilmfest at gmail.com, and this is the  
> second
> year of the festival (the first festival was held in April 2009).
