"We're in the midst of what could really be called a revolution in the area of human rights and international justice... Already we have seen people come to justice who I'm sure never expected that they would ever be brought before a court of law, who thought that they could murder not just tens but hundreds of thousands of people and live to retire in some luxurious palace somewhere. We have shown that this can be stopped."
– Larry Cox, Executive Director, Amnesty International USA

Justice Without Borders (35 minutes, 2007) is a documentary film by Amnesty International USA (AIUSA), produced by Skylight Pictures. The film explores the global movement seeking justice and accountability for the most grave human rights abuses.

Activists across the U.S. are organizing Justice Without Borders screenings to mobilize local action for international justice and accountability. The AIUSA Program for International Justice and Accountability supports these local efforts as part of our work to build an active and vocal constituency in the U.S. for international justice.

Amnesty International believes that by working together, we can break down the walls of impunity and build a world in which no one – no matter their title or position of power – evades justice for the most grave human rights crimes.
