The twelfth year of the film festival One World begun officially on Wednesday 10th March 2010 at Prague Crossroads. During the opening ceremony the annual Homo Homini award has been given to two Iranian student leaders Majid Tavakoli and Abdullah Momeni, both of whom have been repeatedly imprisoned for their activities. The award is given by the organization People in Need which has through this act symbolically recognized the whole Iranian student movement. Because both student leaders are currently in prison, the award was taken over by Iranian exiled journalists. One World is currently one of the leading festivals in Europe that deals with human rights issues and the Dagmar and Vaclav Havel Foundation VIZE 97 is proud to be the festival\u2019s traditional partner.
