Hamilton Human Rights Film Festival
What has the assassination of a Russian political journalist have to do with an Indigenous Australian band singing protest songs about the 'Stolen Generation?’
Is the toxic gold mining in Latin America really an ecological disaster and what of the fate of African refugees being resettled in faraway Germany?
Are the seeds of hatred still being fanned by politically motivated
governments usurping the rights of an indigenous population?
What is an
East Coast Maori Reggae band doing travelling to Northland, and are the
mokopuna of Te Whiti right in wanting to discover their non-violent history?
All these questions will be answered at the Hamilton Human Rights Film Festival.
