Free screening of: The Day After Peace September 19, 2011

Against all odds an individual creates an annual global ceasefire day. Will he silence the cynics and prove that the day can actually save lives? Featuring: Kofi Annan, The Dalai Lama, Angelina Jolie, Jude Law, Annie Lennox, Jonny Lee Miller.

The Day After Peace is the second award-winning documentary film from Jeremy Gilley, which follows his work towards a globally observed day of ceasefire and non-violence.

But even after the member states of the UN unanimously adopt Peace Day, the struggle isn’t over. As the years pass, there’s not a single ceasefire. The voices of the cynics are growing louder – and now Gilley’s non-profit organisation, Peace One Day, is in dire financial straits. But he can’t let it fail.

The film’s breathtaking conclusion finds Gilley joined by Jude Law in Afghanistan attempting to spearhead a massive vaccination against polio on Peace Day. Will peace prevail? Will lives be saved? Or were the cynics right?

The Day After Peace is a moving testament to the power of the individual and the perseverance of the human spirit.
