History

The festival was founded in Brno in 2000 as an accompanying program of the Gay Men CZ competition. The following year was already organized as a separate event – a film show called Duha nad Brnem (Rainbow over Brno). In 2002 the festival started using the name Mezipatra with the subtitle czech gay and lesbian film festival. In the same year, the festival expanded to Prague and in subsequent years to other cities of the Czech Republic and Slovakia. Since 2009, the festival has used the new subtitle queer film festival. Mezipatra was founded by a civic association called STUD Brno. Since 2013 it is organized by a registered association Mezipatra, STUD is a co-organizer under the license agreement.
