Freethought Film Festival Foundation- Promoting Reason Through Film

Thanks to Hemant Mehta for the heads-up on this. Sounds fascinating and I'm already planning to explore the past films listed on the site,,,

The International Freethought Film Festival is in its fourth season. IFFF 2014 will take place in Atlanta, Georgia from November 7th-9th. The categories of films that we screen range from live action, animation, documentary, experimental and narrative features and shorts. The films are captivating, thought provoking, entertaining and the selections reflect our mission statement–promoting reason, critical thinking and freedom of inquiry through the medium of film.

The International Freethought Film Festival is a niche film festival for the bold. Examples of themes in the Freethought niche are those that challenge what some societies and cultures deem unchallengeable, such as religion or government policies. The examination of truth claims that are of interest to skeptics, such as paranormal claims, alternative medicine, UFO’s, psychics and astrology, fits this niche. Films that shed light on Human Rights violations, and stories of women and men who take a humanistic approach to affect positive change in society, have a home at IFFF. The clash between scientific findings and religious/superstitious traditions is a common theme among submissions as well.
