Welcome to our site!
“STEPS” is the first international rights film festival, that takes place at the territory of Ukraine and CIS and at which the theme of right protection is represented within the extended circle of problems. The festival accepts the films devoted to human rights, animal and nature protection, and films of moral and social subjects, the films that illuminate the political problems.
The main aim of the festival is to draw the attention of the society to the prejudices and cruelty that dominate in the modern world, where the abjection of human rights is bound to the destruction of the surrounding living world. A lot of barbarian customs are often left unnoticed and become the norms of our life. That is why the works of the creative people from different countries will help the viewers to understand that everyone is responsible for everything that goes on around him They will help us to open eyes and look at our life laterally.

The film festival is eager to extend the boundaries of the right protection in order to direct the society towards the moral ideals and values. By means of cinema and video the independent producers, directors, script-writers and actors from all over the world will promote the right area to all layers of the society as well as build the “sensitive society for sensitive creatures”. The film festival “STEPS” will show the viewers the things they have never seen before but must see! The mankind must know this “inconvenient truth”.
