Montreal Human Rights Film Festival

27th March - 3rd April 2008

Montreal

The Montre´al Human Rights Film Festival (MHFF) aims to create, through film, a space for exchange, discussion and reflection on issues related to intolerance and respect for human rights. The event will be held as part of the 8th Edition of Action Week Against Racism.

The program of the Montre´al Human Rights Film Festival (MHFF) is composed of two sections:
  • a competitive section reserved in priority for recent productions (short and feature films) completed after January 1, 2005;
  • an out-of-competition section for works completed prior to January 1, 2005
The Grand Prize Award will be attributed to the best feature film on human rights, by a jury made up of Canadian and international personalities from the film, arts and culture, and human rights sectors.

Short Film Awards: Several awards will be given out in the short film category by organizations working in the area of human rights.

Special Audience Award: The non-professional public will be asked to vote for a film among those screened in competition, in all categories, which will receive the Special Audience Award.
