25 YEARS OF PROMOTING RESPECT FOR HUMAN RIGHTS THROUGH DOCUMENTARY FILMMAKING

  • UNAFF (UNITED NATIONS ASSOCIATION FILM FESTIVAL) CELEBRATES GROUNDBREAKING DOCUMENTARIES WITH 60 FILMS FROM ACROSS THE GLOBE THAT WILL CHANGE YOUR VIEW OF THE WORLD

  • 4 WORLD PREMIERES AND 12 US PREMIERES TO BE SCREENED OCTOBER 20-30 WITH THE THEME “REFLECTIONS” OVER 40 FILMMAKERS IN ATTENDANCE THROUGHOUT THE IN-PERSON FESTIVAL
Picture
  • UNAFF is committed not only to presenting films, but also providing opportunities for audiences to engage in ongoing dialogue about the subjects at hand.
  • In addition to 40 filmmakers available for Q&A, six FREE panel discussions will take place during the course of the festival, presenting issues such as climate change, threat of epidemics, mental health, racism and hate, criminal justice reform, immigration, homelessness, creativity and disability, the future of borders and military spending, and the power of art to transform consciousness and inspire social change.

For this very special UNAFF Anniversary - a quarter century - we are giving the UNAFF Visionary Award to Academy Nominated filmmaker Dorothy Fadiman, one of whose several films presented at UNAFF was WHEN ABORTION WAS ILLEGAL: UNTOLD STORIES, shown in 2004.

As we mark the 25th UNAFF Anniversary with the theme REFLECTIONS, it is very appropriate to give the UNAFF Visionary Award to a veteran filmmaker and human rights activist, recognizing her life-long unwavering commitment to human rights, creativity, persistence and vision, which inspired several generations to promote gender equality, a culture of peace and a better future for all.
