Paying The Price For Peace was an Official Selection of The Awareness Film Festival 2017. The Festival is organized by Heal One World, a non-profit charity in Los Angeles, California.
As well as serving as a fundraiser, the mission of the Awareness Film Festival is to inform and inspire audiences through a program of films on Ecological, Political, Health/Well Being and Spiritual topics. They showcase both Documentary and Narrative Features, as well as Short Films, Music Videos and Public Service Announcements. Our events include film-maker Q&A’s, film-maker Panels,as well as conscious art and music
The 2017 Peace On Earth Film Festival (POEFF) committee announced that our documentary, “Paying the Price for Peace” has been chosen as an Official Selection of the 2017 - Ninth Annual Peace On Earth Film Festival, scheduled for the long weekend of Friday March 10 - Sunday, March 12, at the Music Box Theater (the premiere venue in Chicago for the latest in foreign and independent films). Our film is one of the 32 entries selected from a field of 125 submissions.
We are proud to announce that our film, “Paying the Price for Peace,” was one of the final six “Official Selection” films of American INSIGHT’s 2016 Free Speech Film Festival.
American Insights’s 2016 Free Speech Film Festival ™ attracted 70 films by (or about) 32 different countries this year; and 41 citizens from 10 states across America and 7 countries around the world signed up to judge these films online.
Due to the potentially volatile nature of the Free Speech content that is submitted by filmmakers each year, they do not hold a “festival” of screenings. Instead, all six winning films are announced on the night of the Award Ceremony; and their filmmakers are featured for a period of one year on their websites, Free Speech Blog, and monthly newsletters. The competition this year was intense and the judging was close. Films were submitted on a variety of highly-charged global topics.
