FILMS FOR PEACE
One film that goes viral can impact more hearts and minds than one million classes on the same subject.
Throughout history, bullying in all its forms – from schoolyard fights to catastrophic international wars – has destroyed millions of lives. Tragically, the global reach of today’s internet and social media platforms make cyber-bullying an even bigger problem because it affects more people and is rapidly spreading. Our next film for peace, “The Principle”, will address this devastating plague of the digital age with an inspiring story that features healing teachings on peace. PeaceNow Co-Founder and “Admissions” creator John Viscount has written this piece and will direct it in early 2023.
