The actress Elsa Lystad passed away quietly on Boxing Day, at the age of 93.

Lystad was a strong LGBTQ+ supporter. She was made an honorary member of HomoPositiv in 2008 and was awarded FagHag of the Year at the Norwegian Gaygala in 2011, our friends at Blikk.no reports today.

Elsa Lystad once said to Blikk.no that she preferred going to a gay pub rather than boring premiere parties.
