Our Mission
Promoting human rights and social justice through film and art.
The mission of The Human Family is to celebrate and amplify the courageous voices of filmmakers and artists, bringing awareness to human rights, civil rights, or social justice issues. The Human Family believes that engagement with difficult conversations through film and art cultivates learning and compassion, amplifies the voice of underrepresented artists, and promotes diversity. The Human Family encourages community change through empathy, understanding, and perspective-shifting.
