The Film Society of Lincoln Center brings back the Human Rights Watch Film Festival for
its 22nd annual edition from June 16 - 30, 2011 at the Walter Reade Theater, at Lincoln Center in New York City.
Human Rights Watch -- one of the world’s leading independent human rights organizations -- is worth supporting as it is an opportunity to see thought-provoking, well-done social action films that are not always available elsewhere.
One of the most striking themes in this year’s selection is the power of media in all its forms to influence the craft of filmmaking and to impact human rights. Many titles are making their exclusive New York or US debuts.
