• Description : here's a big idea: pangea day plans...(more) to use the power of film to bring the world a little closer together. we're divided by borders, race, religion, conflict... but most of all by misunderstanding and mistrust. pangea day seeks to overcome that -- to help people see themselves in others -- through the power of film. on may 10, 2008 -- pangea day -- sites in cairo, kigali, london, los angeles, mumbai, and rio de janeiro will be linked to produce a 4-hour program of powerful films, visionary speakers, and uplifting music. the program will be broadcast live to the world through the internet, television, digital cinemas, and mobile phones. your film could be part of it. the online video revolution has helped spawn a new generation of grass-roots film-makers worldwide. much of the output, of course, is mediocre. but hidden in there are amazing talents capable of using film to astonishing effect... and capable of telling stories that can create powerful bonds between us. so ask yourself this. if you had the entire world's attention for just a few minutes, what story would you tell? perhaps you think the world looks at you, your country and your culture... and just doesn't understand. then do something about it. never know. it could end up bringing millions of people that bit closer together. pangea is the name of the original super-continent which contained all the world's land mass before the continents started splitting apart 250 million years ago. we're launching pangea day with the vision that the people of the world can begin to overcome their divisions, and that the power of film can help make it possible. movies can't change the world. but the people who watch them can. to register as a film-maker, to get more ideas about film submissions, or to host a screening or learn how you can get involved.
