The Ministry of Human Rights in collaboration with the European Union is launching a Human Rights Film Festival to increase awareness and understanding of human rights issues in Pakistan. The ‘Rights for Reels’ Festival will be held online between 4th August to 24th August 2020.
As lockdown and restriction measures implemented to curb the spread of the coronavirus continue to disrupt normal life, there is an increasing need to constructively and effectively engage the large proportion of the population that has been confined to their homes. This film festival is a unique and innovative way to encourage independent thought and foster dialogue about critical human rights issues in Pakistan. It also has the potential to challenge prevailing norms and problematic stereotypes through a creative medium that is easily accessible, engaging and powerful.
The Rights for Reels Festival will feature a collection of 10-12 pre-selected films on themes including child rights, female empowerment, transgender rights, minority rights, access to justice, death penalty and climate change. The Ministry of Human Rights will host ‘Live Watch Parties’ across social media platforms to promote interaction and engagement. The films will also be available for viewing on our Website and YouTube page for the duration of the festival.
The festival will also include multiple virtual panel discussions to facilitate and encourage dialogue and discourse on various human rights issues that have been explored through the selected films. This includes a panel discussion on the Human Rights Situation in Indian Occupied Jammu & Kashmir, to be moderated by Minister for Human Rights, Shireen Mazari. Panel Discussions will also be held exploring the power of film to create social impact as well as in terms of challenging prevailing gender norms.
Notably, the Ministry of Human Rights is utilizing this opportunity to launch a series of short films that have developed in collaboration with Sharmeen Obaid Chinoy. The Aaghai films series seeks to educate women about their fundamental rights through short informational videos on issues such as How to Register a FIR; Women’s Inheritance rights; and legal information about a Nikka Nama.
