Amnesty International Poland Award

The films in an Amnesty International competition have one theme in common – human rights. They present the psychological, social and political mechanisms that affect our lives, impact our rights and our freedoms. These films deal with the experience of oppression, the effects of violence, abuse of power, but these are at the same time the images of strength, solidarity, activism and hope. The award in Amnesty International competition is 3,000 euros. It is an expression of gratitude to those who use the means of filmmaking to present what human rights are.
