InLight Film Festival

InLight (Human Rights Documentary) Film Festival is an entirely student-run festival aimed at promoting interaction between students, scholars, and practitioners who all share an investment in the many struggles for human rights occurring around the world. Inaugurated in 2015, the fourth edition of ILFF, taking place October 10–13, will feature seven screenings and a series of lectures, workshops, and roundtables. Our mission is to promote powerful films that speak to contemporary issues and to bring the knowledge and experience of a diverse group of filmmakers to the attention of the IU and Bloomington communities. Guest filmmakers and scholars will be present at each screening to participate in a post-film discussion. This partnership is supported through IU Cinema’s Creative Collaborations program.

Curated by Joseph Wofford of The Media School, with support from IU Cinema, Center for Documentary Research and Practice, College of Arts and Humanities Institute, The Media School, Cinema and Media Studies, the Journalism Program at The Media School, Department of International Studies, Maurer School of Law, Department of Anthropology, Black Film Center/Archive, Cultural Studies Program, and Center for the Study of Global Change.
