QFFK, hosted by Docskool in collaboration with Movies That Matter and LOOM. It is more than just a film festival; it’s a brave platform for queer voices that will allow these tales to reach individuals who often get lost in the bright glare of mainstream media. It makes it possible for LGBTQIA+ people and artists from all walks of life–whether tiny productions or huge enterprises to take on modern queen culture. It speaks about their experiences as the driving force behind this program.
The concept of the Queer Film Festival came from the 2023 “Something Like a Film Festival,” during which queer movement activists and filmmakers visualize an independent come together for the celebration of the queer community. QFFK is a lively place for expressing ideas and talking about them as well as celebrating the richness of queer expression.
The festival will be diverse in its programming:
• Personal stories of lived experiences
• Identity, power, and queer history
• Celebrating queer culture
• Restored archival films
• Explorations of the body
Catch the amazing cinema, have a good discussion, and get to know and re-evaluate cultural spaces in Kathmandu. Join in the action, get stuck to the rainbow spectrum of films, and celebrate the beauty of queer storytelling!
Mark your calendar for QFFK-it’s time to celebrate love, identity, and creativity as never before!
