Out in Africa: The South African Gay and Lesbian Film Festival

Where: Cape Town and Johannesburg , South Africa

When: September

The only film festival of its kind on the African continent takes places in Cape Town and Johannesburg on different dates.

"The Festival set out to address the lack of visibility of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Intersex individuals (LGBTIs) in South African social and cultural life after decades of apartheid repression, to counter negative images of LGBTIs that prevail in traditional and religious communities, and to serve as a platform for discussion and debate about the situation of LGBTIs in a newly founded democracy."
