Red Carpet Human Rights Film Festival, Gaza, Palestine

Red Carpet Human Rights Film Festival, Gaza, Palestine

The festival presents short and feature-length films, documentaries, and animated films that shed light on local and global humanitarian issues. The first edition took place in May 2015. Amid the rubble of Gaza City’s Shijaiyah district—an area heavily bombarded during the 2014 summer war between Israeli forces and Hamas militants in the densely populated enclave—the organisers rolled out a 60-meter-long red carpet.

It is the first festival in Gaza to focus on human rights issues, featuring films and discussions not only on Palestine but also on other regions around the world.
