2005 report of Kansai Queer Film Festival
-in cooperation with Tokyo Lesbian and Gay Film Festival-
23-24th July (Saturday-Sunday) 2005
Location: Umeda, Osaka, Hep Hall (Hep Hall 8th Floor)
Many thanks to all those
who came to the festival, those who cooperated with the running, and those
who supported us but were unable to come on the day.
Over the two days we were able to show all the films without any significant
trouble.
Thanks to all of you, including staff 1200 people visited the festival and
this has been very encouraging for next year.
According to responses to our questionnaire, many people used festival passes
and three-showing tickets, and we also received comments asking us to put
the even on every year.
And just as asked, we intend to put the even on again this year and hope
to see you all there.
