Film is where it all began.

Founder Jeremy Gilley has produced and directed three films to spread the message of Peace Day – Peace One Day, The Day After Peace and Peace One Day Part Three (produced by Jeremy Gilley and Jude Law). These films have been broadcast globally – Peace One Day Part Three premiered on 18/19 September 2010 and through BBC World, reached 306 million households in over 200 countries. A fourth film is now in production, following our Global Truce 2012 campaign (also produced by Jeremy and Jude). BUY FILMS

If you only have time to watch one of the three films mentioned above, we recommend The Day After Peace, which you can watch for free, online here.

THE DAY AFTER PEACE

This 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? This film is a moving testament to the power of the individual and the perseverance of the human spirit.
