Venezia 31
ITALY - Humand rights at the Venice Film Festival

August 31, 2025:

Hotel Ausonia Hungaria

Gran Viale Santa Maria Elisabetta, 28

30126 Venice Lido

 

September 2-4

 

The Human Rights Barrier

“Communities can repair and break the cycle of revenge and loneliness.”

Equal and Fundamental Human Rights for All

All in Venice and Hands off Cain – Spes contra Spem

Invite you to the inauguration of the first Corner on Human Rights and Restorative Justice

A meeting point between art, activism, and community.

It will be important to have you with us to share this time

 

This year's campaign will focus on the theme of personal freedom, which is too rarely guaranteed in too many parts of the world.

The focus will be on women seeking emancipation and on the advocacy campaign for Tundu Lissu.

  • “Daughters of a Silent God”

The courage of women imprisoned by physical and social violence in conflict zones and under totalitarian regimes, as they fight for self-determination, for childhood rights, and for dignity.

Fundamental human rights belong to everyone, whether they are close to us or far away from our countries. It concerns us all

  • Advocacy campaign for Tundu Lissu, a key figure in the democratic opposition in Tanzania, who survived a political assassination attempt and is now on death row despite being, without doubt, a symbol of NONVIOLENT resistance, legality and civil rights across Africa
