Sridhar Rangayan, filmmaker and gay activist, has been invited to Zinegoak Bilbao LGBT Film Festival in Spain. He will be presented with festival’s highest honour on February 18. Sridhar will also be showcasing his film Evening Shadows at the festival. Says Sridhar, “I am proud and humbled to be the first Indian to be receiving this award. It recognizes the challenges in which we all continue to make LGBTQ cinema in India, despite lack of resources. My films are not only works of art, but also activist tools that informs and also impacts the Indian LGBTQ movement. In the post Section 377 environment, a film like Evening Shadows will take the conversation beyond legal and political framework to begin conversations on love, dignity and social integration”, he added.
