In Pursuit of Peace

Date: November 16, 2015

(Published Nov. 16, 2015) This is the trailer for A la poursuite de la paix - the French version of In Pursuit of Peace. This riveting 86-minute feature documentary film makes the case for unarmed civilian peacemaking and mediation as a response to violent international conflict.

We follow four Canadian peacemakers as they take us inside the drama of their work in some of the word's hottest conflict zones – land disputes in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, the civil war in South Sudan, IDP camps with displaced minorities in Kurdistan, Northern Iraq and stories of mediation in Darfur, Nepal and Aceh. As we follow our protagonists, we share their challenges and their hopes as they work to create alternative responses to war and violence.

The English version will be released in the spring of 2016.

You can protect civilians who are living in or fleeing violent conflict. Your contribution will transform the world's response to conflict.
