The KOMAS Freedom Film Festival (FFF) is the first annual documentary film festival in Malaysia. Established in 2003, it adopts the themes encompassed in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR), pioneering a documentary film competition method in Malaysia which encourages first-time film makers to turn their winning proposals into films.

FFF strives to bring socially relevant films and documentaries to the Malaysian public; we believe that the protection of our rights is the foundation for genuine justice, peace, equality and democracy.

Through an annual film competition, video workshops, and film screenings, FFF creates a vital platform to showcase outstanding human rights documentaries, often unseen from the public eye due to little commercial backing and the control of mainstream media.

FreedomFilmFest encourages the Malaysian public to use the video medium as a tool for social documentation and film-making. Technological advances have brought about a democratising effect to film-making in recent years; with a video camera in hand, any individual or community can share their story in the way they want to tell it, and express their skills and passion to produce socially relevant films.
