HUMAN RIGHTS IN THE MIDDLE EAST | HRWFFNY

From a powerful and creative portrait of Doaa el-Adl, one the most prominent female cartoonists in the Arab world who courageously uses her talent to advocate for women’s rights, to a film that captures the mass oppression and silencing of women in Iran, and the risks taken by those who defend and support them through the story of one brave woman - two important human rights stories are put under the lens as the Human Rights Watch Film Festival provides a selection of films from across the Middle East. Join audiences in New York, May 31 - June 8, to watch these incredible films and welcome filmmakers, changemakers and human rights experts for post-screening discussions. All films will be available to watch online across the U.S. June 5 - 11 as part of the digital festival. Find out more information and book tickets: bit.ly/41Bugof
