3rd FLASHPOINT Human Rights Film Festival brings together Indian & international
films that deal with human rights issues at macro as well as micro level – from
global concerns to indigenous issues. These films urge us to reflect, react,
revolutionalize… and act as ‘flashpointer’ to usher in change.It is a free
event, held at Alliance Francaise de Bombay, and open to the public at
large.
It has become a very important event because there are no other human rights film festival in
India. While the first edition saw a turnout of 1820, the second edition had
2060 seat occupancy. The festival has been well attended also by many popular, esteemed filmmakers,
actors, critics and celebrities as part of the panel discussion as well as film
screenings.
