At 6 p.m. Greenwich Mean Time, viewers in Cairo, Kigali, London, Los Angeles, Mumbai, Rio de Janeiro and Park City will all discover the same stories, the same art, the same inspiration via live satellite through film, music and exceptional speakers.
Chosen from 2,500 submissions, the 24 Pangea Day films were selected based on their ability "to inspire, transform and allow us to see the world through another person's eyes." In addition to these images and documented tales, participants will hear from visionary speakers and musicians including: Queen Noor of Jordan, CNN's Christiane Amanpour, musician/activist Bob Geldof and Iranian rock phenomenon Hypernova.
