Breakthrough's TRI Continental Film Festival drew huge crowds to see the finest in human rights films from the global south. The Festival features 28 films from more than 20 countries and will include 11 Asia premieres, 8 India premieres and one World premiere.
The Festival opened with the Asia premiere of Pray the Devil Back to Hell, directed by Gini Reticker, an extraordinary story of a small group of Liberian women who win peacce for their shattered country.
