One World Film Festival begins this week


Now in its 12th year, the 2010 Lexington One World Film Festival begins this Thursday, February 28, with the Academy-award winning Japanese film Departures. Through the end of March, a different film will be shown each Thursday at the Kentucky Theatre and each Sunday at the downtown library theatre.

Films were chosen to stimulate discussion and increase understanding about issues regarding race, identity and ethnicity. They range from poignant to uplifting to humorous. All films are free and open to the public.
