(Kathmandu, Nepal) - The Himalayan nation's gay community and activists are to host the first gay and lesbian film festival in Kathmandu. The Blue Diamond Society, Nepal's only organisation for the sexual minorities, will hold the first gay film festival from May 17-20, on the eve of the historic June elections, at the capital's City Hall, that was a key venue of the controversial local elections held by Gyanendra in 2006. Fourteen films, from countries as diverse as India, France and Canada, will be screened before the festival winds up with a beauty pageant by metis gay men who dress as women.
