About WPFF

Since 2012, the Witness Palestine Film Festival has brought Palestinian cinema to our community in Rochester, NY. One of the first Palestine film festivals in our region, for nearly 14 years WPFF has created a space for community, cultural exchange, and witness centered on Palestine. The Witness Palestine Film Festival is the primary project of Rochester Witness for Palestine, a registered 501 (c)(3), that seeks justice and liberation for the people of Palestine wherever they may be. RW4P's motto "Come and see, go and tell" applies also to the work of WPFF, which aims to provide a space for reflection and discussion, as well as tools for action and change.

The Witness Palestine Film Festival Committee includes activists involved in interfaith and Palestinian solidarity work. As a member organization of the Rochester Committee to End Apartheid, RW4P is dedicated to growing the movement for Palestinian freedom in Rochester, NY, and across the globe.
