audience watching a film

Our annual festival

Our annual Human Rights Arts & Film Festival consists of films, art exhibitions, performances and forums that explore the most pressing social justice and cultural issues of our time.

This event forms the foundation of our organisation - and has been our core activity since we were established. Although based in Melbourne, the festival has travelled to most major cities and many regional areas around Australia.
