About us 5th edition
IMPACTE! Human Rights Film Festival of Catalonia is an independent socio-cultural initiative which aims at stimulating dialogue and social awareness on aspects related to Human Rights and Global Justice, through thought-provoking quality films.
Human rights are a growing concern globally on today’s societies, with an increasing number of abuses coming to light as awareness and activism spread around the world. Catalans, known for their empathy and commitment to justice, have a long history of advocacy. Barcelona, a city synonymous with solidarity, is a prime example.

With a wealth of high-quality films being produced worldwide, there’s no shortage of inspiring and thought-provoking content. IMPACTE! will showcase a curated selection of films that are both engaging and cinematically excellent.
