OWM Presents: Global Short Docs

As part of One World Media’s 35th Anniversary and on Awards Day, we will be screening our award nominated short films at Bertha DocHouse in London on 21 June. International topics are brought to life in this inspiring programme of global short documentaries directed by incredible filmmakers.

We travel to the protests on the streets of Khartoum, then to a tribe in India who worship a leopard and on to the courageous anti-war campaigners tracking down the Moscow police officer who abused them. These are stories of bravery, innovation and revolution.
