For the past few months, Indonesian queer life seems to have taken center stage in the news headlines. From a film festival to a homicide case to party animals, the city is alive with all colors of the "rainbow".
First, we have the 7th Q! Film Festival organized by the Q-munity in Jakarta that just ended last week. The event not only showed various movies related to LGBTIQ (Lesbian-Gay-Bisexual-Transgender-Intersex-Questioning) issues but it also gave audiences space to express their thoughts through deep discussion in Q-Gossip. Visitors were able to view pieces of beautiful art in the Q-Photo Exhibition, read and hear meaningful writings in Q-Literature and take moments to chat with some of the filmmakers as well. All of these amazing programs were open to the public for free!
