Queer Film Fest in Mumbai


Saturday, April 3, 2010

Este fin de semana hay un festival de cine queer en Mumbai: Queer Nazariya. Hace 6 años que no se celebraba un festival de cine queer en la ciudad y la gente esta muy contenta. Yo voy a la sesión de mañana titulada Age, disability and sexuality. Me interesa el tema. A las 11:30h de la mañanita, a ver si aguanto, porque hoy toca fiesta sólo para chicas en un garito chic de Bandra, el barrio de Mumbai del que no pienso salir en toda la semana que voy a estar aquí.

Excepto para la presentación del jueves. Que es en Colaba.

On 2 July 2009, the Delhi High Court read down Section 377 of the Indian Penal Code, decriminalising consensual sexual acts between adults of the same sex. It was sweet victory after decades of struggle.

With the judgement being challenged in the Supreme Court by a handful of people, and the unprecedented media attention now being given to queer issues, this is the perfect time to have a festival of queer films in Bombay.

Through screenings of exciting films from around the world, Queer Nazariya wants to reach out to lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex people; to create an affirmative space and a meeting place for all those queer folk out there who do not fit in with society’s norms of sexuality or gender.
