Florida Premiere PeaceJam Country of Origin: USA Language: English Running Time: 71 minutes Director: Dennis Flippin Producer(s): Ivan Suvanjieff, Dawn Engle
Based on the PeaceJam Program, the film is a harrowing and intimate look at the lives of five American teenagers growing up in a culture of violence, and the transformation that occurs when their lives are touched by both greatness and evil. Their stories are often funny and sometimes tragic. Always edgy and real, they will both move and shock you. The film also contains never-before-seen footage of eleven leading Nobel Peace Prize Laureates working with youth in the USA, South Africa, India, Guatemala, and Costa Rica, and rare footage from inside Columbine High School both during and after the shootings.
