ONE WORLD BERLIN

In 2014, the ONE WORLD BERLIN Human Rights Film Festival is taking place for the tenth time. Four programs will be shown from November 20-23, with directors, human rights activists and experts accompanying the program with discussions.

1971 by Johanna Hamilton opens the festival on 20.11. From the start of the 70s, FBI informants and provocateurs were more and more in attendance at anti-war protests, with the idea being to discredit and undermine the movement. The "Citizens' Commission to Investigate the FBI" stole the complete set of files to this end from a regional office in Media, Pennsylvania and made these available for journalists. This revealed that the FBI allowed itself to be abused for the unconstitutional surveillance of those who think differently. Over 40 years later, the predecessors of Wikileaks and Edward Snowden now break their silence about the events there.
