Pangea Day

Pangea is the name of the original super-continent before the land mass started splitting apart 250 million years ago. We’ve seen a lot of division since then – and we’re not just talking about national boundaries.
But that might all start reversing on Wednesday, May 28th, 2008.
 
It’s not a date that leaps off the calendar. But on that day – Pangea Day – locales in London, NYC,  Cairo, Jerusalem, Kigali, Dharamsala, Ramallah and Rio de Janeiro will join forces by showing a 4-hour program of powerful films, speakers, and music broadcast live to the world through the web, TV, and mobile phones.

Worldwide connections have been done before, but this one’s a little different. User-generated content –your films– will be the crux of the connection. Pangea Day is calling on a new generation of grass-roots film-makers to submit films that tell stories that might heal the world just a little. Films can be uploaded here.

Hope to see you on that Wednesday.
