The story

One World International Human Rights Documentary Film Festival in Prague and multiple cities

One World, founded in 1999 by Igor Blazevic and the humanitarian organisation People in Need, has grown into the world's largest human rights documentary film festival, running each March in Prague cinemas while a parallel programme reaches more than fifty other Czech towns and select films travel on to Brussels. A dedicated schools strand also brings festival films into classrooms as teaching material.

One World was founded in 1999 by Igor Blazevic and the Czech humanitarian organisation People in Need, built specifically around documentary films addressing human rights, and it has grown into what organisers and observers now describe as the largest human rights film festival in the world.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

The place changes

Few film festivals anywhere are organised by a humanitarian NGO rather than a film-industry body: One World's founding by People in Need gives its programming an advocacy and public-education dimension alongside cinematic curation, distinct from festivals built primarily around artistic prizes

The mystery stays covered

Its distribution scale is also unusual, the same curated selection reaches Prague cinemas and more than fifty other Czech towns simultaneously through the One World in the Regions strand, plus a dedicated schools programme using films as classroom teaching material

The city starts moving

Selected films additionally travel on to screenings in Brussels, extending the festival's reach into European policy circles beyond its Czech core audience
