KASHISH SHORTS 2011 - Indian Queer Films for your festival

The second edition of KASHISH Mumbai International Queer Film Festival was a brilliant success.

It was held from may 25-29, 2011 at two venues simultaneously - the multiplex Cinemax Versova and Alliance Francaise. 

The festival screened 124 films from 23 countries in 51 program slots. It had 67.5% turnout with about 6225 audience occupancy. There were 15 houseful shows. KASHISH 2011 was Bigger, Bolder & Queerer.
A bevy of Bollywood celebrities – Juhi Chawla, Rahul Bose, Pooja Bhatt, Sanjay Suri, Samir Soni, Neelam Soni, Aleque Padamsee, Suhasini Mulay, Dolly Thakore, Rajit Kapur, Mona Ambegaokar, Karan Mehra; eminent jury members from India to Indonesia – Sai Paranjpye, Khalid Mohamed, Shernaz Patel, Samir Soni, John Badalu; visiting international filmmakers -  Rikki Beadle-Blair (UK) and Q. Allan Brocka (USA), host of young Indian filmmakers and a very supportive media upped the festival buzz to greater heights, making KASHISH India’s Biggest Queer Film Festival and a hot & happening cultural space.
Last year, 8 films from KASHISH 2010 was offered to film festivals from around the world.

Films from KASHISH SHORTS 2010 were selected to program at 12 festivals – Iris Prize (UK), Q Film Festival (Indonesia), Hong Kong LGFF (Hong Kong), Reel Out (Canada), Translations (Seattle, USA), Transcreen (Amsterdam), Kalakranti (Chicago, USA), Anarchopride (Sweden), Entzaubert DIY Fest (Germany), Beijing Queer Film Festival (China), Chicago South Asian Film Festival (USA) and Qfest (Pune, India).


We now offer 8 films from KASHISH 2011. The KASHISH SHORTS 2011 package consists of five fiction shorts (Amen, The Flower Bud, I Am A Woman Too, In The Closet, Let There Be Light) and three docu shorts (Creatures?, Diaries Of Transformation, More Than A Friend).
Please find KASHISH SHORTS 2011 Catalog at http://issuu.com/kashish/docs/kashish_shorts_2011 for programme consideration at your festival. We do charge a nominal screening fee to help the young filmmakers. Kindly let us know if you would like a set of films from this catalog and we would be very happy to take the collaboration forward. 
Every Partner Festival also receives a space on our festival website and become an intrinsic part of our promotions.

Hope to hear from you,
Warm regards
