International Native and Indigenous Film Festival - fPcN organised

An International non governmental organisation UWIP (a member of fPcN Global), together with the Masaryk University and Moravian City Museum is preparing a film festival Native and Indigenous Film Fest (NAIFF). The aim of the festival is to introduce today's life of indigenous peoples in different parts of the Earth to the wide public and thus reinforce the public's interest in indigenous issues.

The film screening will be interlaced with lectures of indigenous issues experts, discussions with film directors and the launch of The Free West Papua Campaign in Czech Republic.

Our film „West Papua – The secret war in Asia“ has been pre-selected by the New York and Los Angeles Short Film Festival. After his premiere at the Venice Biennale in 2007 (Radio New Zeeland), 2008 Origins First Nation Film Festival and Riverside Studios the film will be also shown at the Native and Indigenous Film Festival in Brno/Czech Republic.

During the festival the film "Land of Thorns" will also be shown. The film was made from the french NGO ACTED (EU sponsorship) in cooperation with fPcN Germany to rise awareness (Campaign) for pastoralists in Africa.
