We visited the Ritzy Cinema and attended a Human Rights short films screening. All the films were made by young filmmakers and were based on the central theme of global Human Rights issues. The screening was held to allow young people to express their views on certain issues throughout the world.
Most of the films focused on cultural problems or discrimination, or the experiences of the filmmakers themselves. These films each had a personal touch and view from the filmmakers which allowed the audience to feel a connection with the directors.
After the screening, two of the filmmakers held a question and answer session for the audience. They told us about how the films had affected the issues and people they involved, and how they had influenced the people who had seen them.
It was a great experience and an inspirational trip, and I think such screenings should be held more often.
