Pangea Day
May 11, 08 by Jiun JiePangea Day was an international multimedia event conducted on May 10, 2008. Cairo, Kigali, London, Los Angeles, Mumbai, and Rio de Janeiro were linked to produce a 4-hour program of films, music and speakers. The program was broadcast live across the globe from 1800 to 2200 UTC, culminating in a global drum circle, symbolizing the common heartbeat of the world.
According to the festival organizers, “Pangea Day plans to use the power of film to bring the world a little closer together”, “Bring together millions of people from all over the world in a unique shared experience”, “Use the power of film to create a better understanding of one and another”, “Form a global community striving for a better future”.
I have seen a few clips from YouTube. All of them are truly inspiring, telling their stories by flim and we could understand it even though there are living half way around the globe.
