The first day you meet,              you are friends,
the next day you meet,
         you are brothers.  
               Afghan proverb

We support cultural communities by 

• assisting them to make their own films about their own culture, as well as screening those films at events worldwide and on our website
• sharing visual educational materials and resources from other cultures in assisting them to find solutions in the endeavors of others with similar problems
• connecting them to other communities and enabling them to form new friendships and start collaborative projects through our screening events and our website
• offering them a virtual place to communicate events and programs

We’re bringing film to communities and strive to connect communities on a local and on a global level. Each film is accompanied by one or more charitable projects, that enable the audience to contribute directly to the project of their choice. The films all come with a package of cultural information that further expand on the film and its subject matter. Wherever we can, the films will be expanded into a community cultural event, where the audience member can meet members from other cultural communities, as well as get a taste of the food, art and music of the culture highlighted in the film.
