Posted by Unknown Sunday, August 7, 2011 0 comments
Closing Date: September 15,2011:

Committed to the promotion and a wider circulation of human rights film screenings worldwide, Movies that Matter has initiated an extra stimulus for the circulation of human rights films in Africa, Asia, Latin America and Eastern Europe.
Movies that Matter offers modest financial assistance up to € 5.000 of subsidy to organise various types of human rights film events in countries in Africa, Asia, Latin America, Middle East and Eastern Europe.
This may take various forms, such as human rights film festivals, mobile cinema programmes, film and debate programmes, small-scale screenings for specific target groups, rotation within a network of film houses, school and university screenings, and distribution through multimedia platforms. 
Movies that Matter judges every project on its individual merits. Movies that Matter is open for innovative and new plans. If you're not sure if your project fits within the criteria, please contact our office.
Please keep in mind that the selection procedure takes two months, so apply for funding for your project well in advance!
