The festival featured a mix of premieres of new films that had been slated to premiere at a film festival that was canceled due to the pandemic, and older films that the partner festivals have chosen to highlight as deserving of wider attention, as well as a new film by Kōji Fukada that was created specifically for We Are One.
In addition, the festival screened a number of virtual reality projects and some international television and web series episodes, selected panel discussions with filmmakers, and a live DJ set by Questlove.
Films were screened for free, although links were available to encourage voluntary donations to international COVID-19 relief funds.
