Moustache film festival to be held in Maine

Move over, Cannes. Maine will be playing host to its first-ever international moustache film festival, part of its annual pageant that celebrates the bristly facial hair.

The festival set for March 30 in Portland will feature short films with storylines that involve moustaches or a main character who wears a moustache, said Nick Callanan, head of No Umbrella Media, a video production company organizing the event.

The idea for the moustache film festival, believed to be the first of its kind, grew out of an annual moustache pageant held locally to benefit arts and cancer research organizations, he said.

This year's 2012 Stache Pag will feature contestants wearing all manner of moustaches, from handlebars to horseshoes, Callanan said. There are also the walrus and Fu Manchu styles, he said.
