Description
In 1999 Londoner and self-described failed actor Jeremy Gilley had a great idea. He was goign to create a day on earth on which there would be no killing. But for peace to break out, Gilley had to transform himself into a one-man lobbyist and political activist.
Documenting Gilley's tireless negotiations with celebrities, politicians and bureaucrats, the film is a tour-de-force - culminating in a stunning scene in which his day of peace is announced at precisely the moment when the planes hit the Twin Towers on 9/11.
Amnesty International will be screening this film to mark International Peace Day.
Free, booking required
