KARACHI: Entering its fourth year, the AKS International Minorities Festival reached Karachi after being held at Lahore and Islamabad earlier this month.
The festival kicked off at The Second Floor (T2F) on Friday evening and will end today before heading to Hyderabad and Peshawar.
The festival, which showcases different international films addressing issues of LGBT communities as well as women and children’s rights, also has panel discussions on problems faced by the transgender community in Pakistan. A documentary film from the Philippines, ‘Outrun’, which was about Ladlad, the only LGBT political party in the world, was shown at the beginning of the event to later develop the theme of the discussion about political representation of the transgender community.
