SFG 2007 in the newspapers
A couple of
press articles have started appearing in the local and
national publications. On Clujeanul.ro you can find an ample
material called
“Festival gay la Cluj”,
professionally written by Sebastian Secan.
We can’t say the same thing about the lines written by Alin
Ionescu, author of the article
“Andreea is missing in the LGBT top”
from Cotidianu, article written –by ear-, without actually
getting a bit better informed and actually finding out that
the section “The sexiest woman” actually exists for the Gala
of the Gay Prizes 2007.
Like always, CanCan had a great impact with the article
“The idols of the gay people”.
The materials was read and laughed at in a pathetic way, both
by Mircea Badea in the “In the press’ mouth” show, but also by
the two presenters of the “Dimineata Dementa” show from Radio
21. Nevertheless, we thank them for promoting the event.
Also, a brilliantly informed article, complex and still
impartial was published in the “Monitorul de Cluj”, called
“European contest of cinematography”.
The article was written by Florentina Tatar.
"Gay Film Nights"
- Romanian Gay-Lesbian Festival
Under the
epigraph "Respect me the way I am!", the fourth edition of the
festival "Gay Film Nights" will take place in Cluj-Napoca
between the 15th and the 21th of October 2007.
The producers claim that it will not be a regular edition,
mainly because it's been 5 years since the organizer of the
event, the LGBT support group "Be An Angel Romania", was
founded.
With the aid of art, a bridge of communication and diversity
acknowledgment will be attempted between people, regardless of
their sexuality.
Besides the LGBT artistic movies running during the event, the
festival will also host for the first time an international
contest for all young people willing to express their
creativity with an anti-discrimination message. The contest is
known as "Home Made Movies".
Two photo exhibitions, a theater performance and public
debates are just some of the main
events of a splendid edition to come.
One of the most important spotlight events will be the "Gala
of the Gay Prizes 2007" where, just like in the previous
editions, awards will be granted to personalities of the
public Romanian life that have supported and gotten involved
into the LGBT community from Romania.
And as it has been in the last three editions, entrance is
free, yet another reason for everyone to join.
"HOME
MADE MOVIE" Contest
Do you dream
at a future career in the film industry? Do you wish to become
a famous producer? Then you can work at it starting now!
Put together
and make your own film. But not any kind of film... it must be
a LGBT (lesbi/gay/bisexual/transsexual) themed film with the
message "stop discrimination" or "be tolerant". Are you done?
Great!
From the 15th to the 21st of October, Cluj-Napoca (Romania)
will host an international level contest session "Home Made Movie"
addressed to all. The session is included in the
program of the Gay-Lesbi Film Festival "Gay Film Nights".
Entries may include only personal short-film productions with
a length of no more than 20 minutes. Contact us up to the 5th
of October 2007 (deadline) and send your creation through a
CD/DVD or give us a download link.
Remember to add a short comment and some personal information.
Don't miss this opportunity. We'll be waiting.
