Take on Film & Impact
From Sunday 23 March until Tuesday 25 March, join us for the Take on Film & Impact segment of the Movies that Matter Festival 2025. This is a programme designed for filmmakers and NGOs. It aims to support filmmakers in refining their impact strategies and foster connections and collaborations with organisations, funders, and broadcasters in The Netherlands.
Ten projects from four continents have been selected for the annual Take on Film and Impact programme of Movies that Matter. These projects explore a diverse range of critical topics, including environmental activism, the systemic violence against protesters, the safety of journalists in war zones and in countries where democracy is under threat, European border management and its colonial past, LGBTQ rights, and copyright challenges in an increasingly digital and AI-driven world.
On Tuesday 25 March, the selected teams will present their projects and impact goals to an audience of NGOs, international organisations, and impact funders. Distributors, sales agents, and other professionals from the cinema and television industries are also welcome to attend. This year we are working again with impact projects from around the world, whom we are guiding towards meeting the right partners for their campaigns.
