Panaji, Jul 23 (PTI) Goa will host the Tri Continental Film Festival 2008 here between July 25 to July 30.
The festival will be held in collaboration with Goa International centre, Moving Images Goa and Entertainment Society of Goa (ESG).
Around 21 films from Asia, Africa and America will be screened during the festival.
"The theme of the festival is based on human rights violation and all the films will be on this theme," Gayatri Konkar, partner, Moving Images, told reporters here yesterday.
From a total 135 films which were submitted 21 were chosen for the festival, she added.
The festival was held for the first time in Argentina in 2002 and thereafter it was held in different places. Last year, it was held in Goa and we are again organising it with the participation of Entertainment Society of Goa, Konkar said.
The aim of this festival is to bring human rights awareness amongst the commonest of the people, she added. PTI
