PEACE ONE DAY is the story of one man’s attempts to persuade the
global community via the United Nations to officially sanction a global
ceasefire day; a day of non-violence; a day of Peace.
This documentary charts the remarkable 6-year journey of the filmmaker
as he meets heads of state, Noble Peace Laureates, aid agencies, freedom
fighters, media moguls, the innocent victims of war and, eventually, everyone
who was anyone at the UN.
An individual genuinely can make a difference: The UN International Day
of Peace is now fixed in the calendar on 21st September annually. The
real challenge has now begun - to get the world to unite on a day fast
approaching.
'A Call to Action'
The Peace One Day film project began as the vision of British director
Jeremy Gilley. Launched in 1999, with the support of countless individuals
and organisations, the film documented and inspired the establishment
of the United Nations International Day of Peace as a day of global ceasefire
and non-violence, now fixed in the calendar as 21st September annually.
The Film will receive its World Premiere at The Edinburgh International
Film Festival, August 2004. The North American Premiere will take place
at the Ziegfeld Theater, Manhattan, New York on 21st September 2004. The
BBC will be screening the film in September 2004 - watch press for details.
