Some Notes on Int. Labor Film Festival from Gerardo Renique
The Festival Travels to Turkey
Our festival is completely free and we encourage everyone to attend. After the screening of the films in 1-7 May 2006, the entire collection is carried to even the most remotest places in the country where municipalities, labor unions and other progressive organizations organize the festival films to be shown to the public for free. A heated debate and discussion follows the screening. we have selected for the festival, and the "roaming festival" became a major event in these places. The demand for the festival to visit the towns and villages, for an event that has only started last year, is so high that we can not accommodate all the requests at this time. Last year's festival has also been carried to Germany, where a great number of Turkish/Kurdish workers earn their living, where the event will be repeated in December

2nd International Labor Film Festival
We are laborers, labor union activists, unionists, academicians and mass organizations in Turkey. We are organizing The First International Labor Film And Video Festival in Istanbul and Ankara , in Turkey between 29th of April 7 th of May 2007, during the May Day celebration.
We invite you for your endorsement and participation.
This non-competitive festival is devoted to the screening of video and film on the lives and struggle of working class people all around the world, for the exchange and collectivizing of the experiences of the filmmakers, as documentary or fiction works of groups and individuals, committed to labor struggle; to spread the works that show the struggle of workers, unemployed, students, farmers and women as well as screening films that show the popular uprisings across the world. We believe this will help arouse interest in labor films and promote their production in Turkey and around the world.
The festival dates are set to follow the mass May Day activities. For a week, there will be a variety of events related with the labor movement in Turkey. On April 30 2006, the participants of the festival will commemorate the massacre of the 37 May Day participants in 1977, participate the May Day March in Istanbul, and visit a site of labor struggle.
If you have any queries about the festival, please do not hesitate to contact us. We look forward to hearing from you.
