"Peace Pilgrim"
From 1953 to 1981 a silver haired woman calling herself only "Peace Pilgrim" walked more than 25,000 miles on a personal pilgrimage for peace. She vowed to "remain a wanderer until mankind has learned the way of peace, walking until given shelter and fasting until given food." In the course of her 28 year pilgrimage she touched the hearts, minds, and lives of thousands of individuals. Her message continues to inspire people all over the world.

"Gandhi"
The moving epic on the life of Mohandas Gandhi, political and spiritual leader of India during its independence movement. Gandhi was the pioneer of "resistance through mass civil disobedience", firmly founded on total non-violence. His principles inspired movements for civil rights and freedom across the world.
Wednesday, September 23 @ 7.00 p.m.
"The Day After Peace"
Jeremy Gilley had become disillusioned with his work as an actor, but understood the potential of film to positively affect people and create change in the world. So when he set out on his near impossible Peace Day Mission in 1999, he took a camera with him. Every journey made, every country visited and every person met - he got it all on camera. Ten years on, The Day After Peace is his story.
