The Queer Film Festival MEZIPATRA is a specialized film festival competition that annually shows approximately one hundred top films with gay, lesbian, bisexual, trans and queer themes in Prague and Brno. Its purpose is to present the excellent work of world cinema shunned by mainstream culture to the widest possible audience. This international competition is accompanied by exhibitions, lectures, workshops, discussions, and parties. In addition to Prague and Brno, these films will appear in the form of festival echoes in other cities, such as Ostrava, Olomouc, Pilsen, Pardubice or České Budějovice.
