Kashish Mumbai International Queer Film Festival

(to be held on

May 27-31, 2015

in Mumbai, India) invites designers across the world to design the official festival poster and overall look for its 6th edition with the theme ’

Reaching Out, Touching Hearts

’.

The theme of

2015

edition reflects the urgent need for all of us to reach across barriers and boundaries, reach out to everyone - parents, families, friends, colleagues and peers. An equal society without stigma and discrimination is a shared responsibility.

The

Indian LGBT

movement is at a crucial time in its history, where it is fighting an unjust law - section

377

of the Indian Penal Code - that criminalises the community. It is important to broad-base this struggle and build alliances across race, class, caste, religion, sex, gender identity and sexual orientation to challenge prejudice, change attitudes and create a society that allows each person to live with

love

and

dignity

.
