> 
>   2000 Seoul International Queer Film & Video
> Festival is now accepting entries. We accept all
> kinds of queer themes-inspired film and video works,
> including narrative features, documentary,
> animation. Of course, short and feature length films
> are accepted. The festival's mission is to showcase
> prominent achievements made by
> gay/lesbian/bisexual/transgender and other queer
> filmmakers, and is intended to make it wide to
> represent queer lives and voices in
> straight-centered society and all the people of the
> queer community to celebrate their diversity
> 
>   In November of 1998, the first bi-annual Seoul
> International Queer Film and Video Festival was
> launched in Art SonJae Center's theater in Seoul,
> which has been the best one of film venues in Korea.
> Now, this year's festival will be held in two
> venues, one more venue beside Art SonJae Center's
> theater in order to accomodate more filmgoers than
> last festival. The first festival was big success to
> take big attentions from not only domestic mass
> media but also major international media. The
> festival's percentage of seats was up to eighty-five
> percentage and about more than 10,000 audiences met
> the queer film works during ten festival dates. And
> we are proud to abolish almost all lawful and
> institutional obstacles to head off the queer view
> in Korean Society. In the end, the festival won the
> cultural civil rights to make and show queer film
> and video works. 
>   Based on the encouraging results of last festival,
> Seoul Queer Film & Video Festival must be much
> bigger and can introduce new paths to make queer
> film community for audiences and alternative
> economic, cultural opportunities for queer
> filmmakers and distributors. Once again scheduled
> for a run during 1st - 7th, September, 2000, Seoul
> International Queer Film and Video Festival will
> return home to a whole new set of provocative,
> humorous, dramatic, and all-around-gay filmmaking.
> This year, beside regular official programmes
> introducing new diverse flows of queer film
> movement, the festival will make some special
> programmes to considerate and celebrate and reflect
> the startling progresses of queer film and videos.
> Now, with all Korean film-maniac queer audiences,
> the festival looks forward to meeting the directors,
> distributors, and all queer image makers for happy
> and joyful new millennium for queer people. 
>    
>   Thank you.
