We have several new releases that would be of interest. I have taken the
liberty to include links to our site with info on the films:

It's My Life:

Justice and the Generals:

I am not sure how broad you are planning the theme of your festival, but
some others to consider may be:
War and Peace:

Gacaca:

Please feel free to review these and others we have on Human Rights issues
listed on out website; you can search the site by topic. I hope this is of
help.
