Human Rights Watch -TIFF Bell Lightbox

Human Rights Watch Presented by TIFF Bell Lightbox Starts: January 22, 2011 Ends: March 4, 2011 Time: 08:00 PM to 11:00 PM This year the annual Human Rights Watch Film Festival presents ten feature films that inspire hope, confront oppression, seek truth and demonstrate humanity s will to defend their own rights and those of others.From Peru to Iran, Kenya to Belgium, these documentary and fiction films many centred around the theme of family reach beyond the headlines to reveal the core issues underlying many of the human rights abuses occurring worldwide.These powerful depictions of the struggles necessary to preserve one s basic freedoms speaks eloquently to the universality of human rights in an evermore interdependent world, inspiring people to raise their voices in defense of those who cannot.
