The Festival inaugurates a new collaboration with the independent feminist media outlet La D\u00e9ferlante<\/strong><\/a>, through a Forum dedicated to unpaid labour as a starting point for rethinking trade union struggles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It further renews its partnership with Blast<\/strong><\/a>, with the screening of Alice au pays des colons <\/em>by Yanis Mhamdi as a particularly resonant moment, a documentary that reveals the everyday forms of resistance of a Palestinian family facing settler violence in the West Bank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

FIFDH supports the campaign
against the SSR initiative<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In an age of misinformation, fake news, and manipulative content\u2014amplified by artificial intelligence\u2014the FIFDH reaffirms the importance of reliable, independent, and impartial public media. These issues lie at the heart of the reflections of the 24\u1d57\u02b0 edition.

In this context, the Festival supports the campaign against the SSR initiative<\/a>. A reduction in its funding would jeopardize public service media and undermine access for the entire Swiss population to an independent, high-quality source of information. Indeed, the SSR guarantees fact-checking and access to comprehensive, pluralistic information.

Furthermore, alongside the FOC, the SSR is one of the main supporters of Swiss cinema. It makes a significant contribution to the production and distribution of cultural works from all regions and sectors of the country. Without this collaboration, many projects would struggle to see the light of day.<\/p>\n\n\n
