Film Festival
The
Celebration of Peace Film Festival uses the power of film to move
people beyond their present boundaries to embrace and practice peace in
varied and highly personal ways. We bring to you, an exceptional
selection of the most lauded, award winning documentaries depicting
powerful and compelling stories of peace and conflict resolution around
the globe. ThinkGlobal Arts will screen three award-winning films, two
documentaries and a musical comedy. Each of these screenings will
be followed by a short but stimulating interactive discussion.
Free popcorn and ice cream will be served!
A FORCE MORE POWERFUL
This
documentary carefully weaves two separate but related episodes in
history, demonstrating how nonviolent power overcame oppression and
authoritarian rule. The film journeys through Nashville, Tennessee
in the 1960s and ends in the Eastern Cape Province of South Africa in
the mid-1980s.
WEST BANK STORY
A
lively musical comedy set in the fast-paced, fast-food world of
competing falafel stands in the West Bank. A little singing, a little
dancing, and a lot of hummus helped West Bank Story capture an Academy
Award for "Best Live Action Short Film."
WE SPEAK AS ONE
Five
Nobel Laureates share their inspirational vision for peace by
addressing pressing global issues on ecology and environment that face
today's young people.
