17 - 26 May 2011

One World is one of the biggest human rights film festivals in Europe. The program will include twenty award winning documentaries dealing with some of the most pressing political and human rights issues from around the globe. The films deal with a range of human rights concerns in China, Russia, Burma and Iran, as well as complex issues connected to globalization, immigration and women’s rights. Each screening will be followed by either Q&As with directors or panel discussions led by experts on the issues in each film.

This year, the festival comes to Brussels for the fifth time. Films will be shown in the Czech Permanent Representation to the EU, the Bozar Centre for Fine Arts, the European Parliament and the Goethe Institut.

One World in Brussels is held under the auspices of Jerzy Buzek, the President of the European Parliament, Václav Havel, the former President of the Czech Republic, and Ambassador Milena Vicenová, the Permanent Representative of the Czech Republic to the European Union.

Registration for screenings is mandatory. Entry is free of charge except for screenings at Bozar, and special security arrangements apply for screenings at the European Parliament. We look forward to seeing you at the festival!
