The National Human Rights Commission has opened the entries for

will not be entertained.

The award carries a certificate along with prize money of Rs.1

The aim of the award scheme is to encourage and acknowledge cinematic and

The short films may be in any Indian languages with sub-titles in English
or in English. Duration of the short film should not be less than 3 minutes
or more than 10 minutes. The films may be made in any technical format.

The themes of short films, having a tinge of rights perspective, could be
broadly-based on various socio-economic, cultural and political rights.
These may be within the ambit of right to life, liberty, equality and
dignity and raising concerns on issues, specific, among others, to bonded
and child labour, children, women and other weaker sections, elderly
persons, differently abled persons, healthcare, food, education, custodial
violence and torture, domestic violence, clean environment, indigenous
people, displacement, food and nutrition securities, issues of fundamental
freedoms, human trafficking etc.

The NHRC is completing its silver jubilee in 2018, hence short films may
also be educative and informative about the human rights violation
redressal mechanism in the country and challenges being faced by those
involved in the promotion and protection of human rights.
