Discover different cultures from a new perspective
The raison d’être of film festivals is based on the belief that artists and creators have the power to bring people together and create meaningful connections at a time when the world needs them most. Through We Are One: A Global Film Festival, audiences will not only be able to experience different cultures in a new way, but also support local communities by making direct donations to organizations involved in relief efforts for those affected by Covid-19. The festival will benefit the World Health Organization (WHO), as well as local humanitarian partners in each region.
