While activities are continuing at full pace at the !f AFM International Film Festival, 'Nakka!' one of the events that helped kick off events on Feb. 11, has many talking.

The exhibition, which continues through Feb. 21, takes place at The Hall, which is usually used as a party venue.

The exhibition is a protest to those trying to make life harder for lesbians, gays, bisexuals and transsexuals, or LGBT. "Determining moral values, the state, the legal system and media have followed a tactical strategy of terrorizing ->-bleeped-<-s and transsexuals," a statement from the event organizers said.
