Organized by the Abraham Lincoln Brigade Archives (ALBA) and housed at the legendary Downtown Community Television Center (DCTV), the Impunging Impunity Human Rights Documentary Film Festival will run from September 22 to 24.
The festival aims to uphold justice, resistance, and equality through documentaries on human rights, Q&A sessions, and talk-backs with activists. The festival features works from throughout the world.
