The
mission of Film, Faith, and Justice is to grow awareness, foster critical dialogue, and catalyze change toward a more just world. Through screening award-winning documentaries, hosting keynote lectures by leaading theologians, and moderating panel discussions with local leaders, we are interested in seeing how faith commitments and social action may complement one another toward fundamental societal change.
The fourth annual Film, Faith, and Justice event is made possible by a Seattle coalition of volunteers working in various non-profit, educational, and corporate contexts.
The event was started by an online theological journal,
The Other Journal. The journal looks as issues concerned with culture and faith, and has featured such prominent individuals such as Jim Wallis, Cornel West, and Charles Taylor.
Film, Faith, and Justice changes venues every year. In the past the event has been held at Seattle Pacific University, University of Washington, and Mars Hill Graduate School.
Film, Faith, and Justice 2009 is a not-for-profit event, funded by generous donations and ticket sales.
