One World Romania – International Human Rights Documentary Film Festival (10th edition, Bucharest)

Details

The festival is organized by the One World Romania Association, in collaboration with KAS Rule of Law Program South-East Europe. One World Romania is a yearly event focusing on teaching and assimilating the utmost importance of human rights using film as a means of communication. The festival arose from a close collaboration with One World - The Czech Human Rights Film Festival of Prague / Czech Republic.

The awareness level concerning human rights among both the population and political figures are still alarmingly low, despite the energetic efforts made by local NGOs. Such an event provides the perfect context to call people's attention and especially engage young Romanians in the debate.

ONE WORLD ROMANIA 2017 hosted over 60 documentaries in four different cinemas (Elvire Popesco, Union, Eforie and MTR) and more than 10 accompanying events in alternatie locations (Rezidența Scena9, Centrul Național al Dansului București, Galeria Posibilă etc.). Most of the films were followed by discussions with the audience, having as guests international and Romanian film directors, experts and human right activists.
