On the heels of the HIFF2015 and mourning of the tragic passing of co-director Nick Louvel,'The Uncondemned,' which received the 2015 Brizzolara Family Foundation Award for a Film of Conflict and Resolution, also received the Victor Rabinowitz and Joanne Grant Award for social justice this past weekend.
In support of the documentary’s advocacy for and education about mitigating violence among women, Reputation Dynamics teamed with EILEEN FISHER to create a social impact partnership for 'The Uncondemned,' working with Reisa Brafman, Social Consciousness Leader of Community Partnerships & Women’s Initiatives. EILEEN FISHER hosted a reception for the filmmakers and cast, along with 70+ people, in their East Hampton store, immediately following the premiere screening, a Q&A coffee discussion the following morning with Patricia Sellers, as well as day of shopping fund raiser. This partnership underscores the power of cultivation events, informing and empowering local and global communities to support important causes.
We are extremely grateful for the Hamptons International Film Festival’s and EILEEN FISHER’s support and commitment.
THE UNCONDEMNED tells the gripping and world-changing story of a group of young international lawyers and activists who fought to make rape a crime of war, and the Rwandan women who came forward to testify, to win justice, where there had been none. Up until this point rape had not been considered a war crime and was committed with impunity. A courtroom thriller, and personal human drama, THE UNCONDEMNED interweaves the stories of the characters in this odyssey, leading to the trial in the International Criminal Court — and the results that changed the world of criminal justice forever. We invite you to review the trailer: www.filmat11.tv/theuncondemned.
