“The Day After Peace”
This evening, Vee and I visited our dear young friends Rachael and James for dinner and discussion. Together we watched a DVD of a remarkable and inspiring documentary entitled “The Day After Peace”.
Featuring Jude Law, Angelina Jolie, the Dalai Lama, Annie Lennox, Kofi Annan and Jonny Lee Miller, the documentary charts the astonishing 10-year journey of award-winning filmmaker Jeremy Gilley to establish an annual Peace Day on 21 September.
It shows the power of campaigning, even against formidable odds, when the campaigners refuse to give up and political, business and celebrity allies come on board.
Incidentally both Rachael and James are incredibly creative people, she as a ceramicist and he as a furniture designer. Rachael has just opened a web site here.
