Beauty & Brains

Would you enter a talent contest to stop rape and abuse being an everyday part of your existence?
To be third-gender in Nepal means a choice of three careers; giving blessings at weddings, begging or prostitution. They are excluded from family and school, are prey to security forces, blackmail and sexual abuse. However, as Nepal attempts to
write a new constitution there is a chance of change. In order to be heard above the clamour and civil unrest, the third-genders with Sunil Pant and the Blue Diamond Society embarked on the Beauty and Brains Talent Contest.
This is the story of a community gaining the confidence to confront prejudice and tell society they are natural human beings.

Bildwechsel presents: Open Your Golden Gates

Have you ever been to San Francisco? Did you leave your heart there? Are you curious about the world’s gay paradise?

Coral Short is back to deliver you the Bay Area’s finest queer videomakers’ work.

Shining forth from the projector this work will delight, move and astonish you. Ranging from tough to tender, from dreamlike to wild, new queer stars are born. So crawl out of that winter hibernation cave, bundle up, come out, and be entertained by these hot Californians.
