The deadline has now passed for entry the 2012 ICCL Human Rights Film Awards. Many thanks to all the filmmakers who entered. Panel deliberations will be taking place over the coming weeks. Watch this space for updates, and for the announcement of the Shortlist!

The five shortlisted entries will be screened as part of a high-profile Gala Awards evening in Dublin in summer 2012, an invaluable opportunity for filmmakers to showcase their work to the film industry and to the film-going public.

The Grand Prize winner will be chosen by our Jury, and will win a place in the prestigious Summer School in Human Rights, Cinema & Advocacy, jointly run by the Huston School of Film & Digital Media and the Irish Centre for Human Rights at NUI Galway. The Summer School brings together students and professionals from all over the world involved in the fields of Human Rights Cinema and Advocacy to reflect on the use of film and video advocacy as an instrument for enhancing human rights awareness on critical social, political and environmental issues, and to influence change.

Runners up prizes included studio and production time , and master classes from the ICCL Human Rights Film Awards' sponsors and supporters in the Irish film industry.
