A new film festival kicks off in December- 3rd to 7th 2008. Dedicate some days to some of the best and most thought-provoking flims about human rights and human wrongs. Films that are ironic, emotional, amazing and inspiring.
60 years of human rights
5 days of film, discussion and inspiration.
The festival is the ideal way to involve yourself in the 60th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and warm up for the Nobel Peace Prize ceremony, both taking place on 10th December.
The main festival venue is Parkteatret in Oslo, but anyone can join in, anywhere in Norway – see how you can Do It Yourself.

Form your opinions, join the debate and be part of the solution.
