Since 2010, the Peaceful Revolution Foundation has awarded the Leipzig Ring Prize as part of the Leipzig International Festival for Documentary and Animated Film. The prize is awarded to an artistic documentary film that demonstrates exemplary civic commitment to democracy and human rights or was made with great personal commitment and courage on the part of the filmmaker in the face of resistance and restrictions on freedom of the press and freedom of expression. This year, eight outstanding films have been nominated for the Leipzig Ring, from which a three-member jury will select the film to be honoured. The award includes the presentation of the statuette and prize money totalling €2,500.
