Peace and Collaborative Development Network

Building Bridges, Networks and Expertise Across Sectors

I'm looking for suggestions of films that would be appropriate to show a group of undergraduate students in Iraq as part of a program introducing them to modern peacebuilding/CR theory and practice. The film can be in English, but if there is an Arabic version of it available, that would be helpful. I'm looking for something that would raise some major themes and stimulate discussion, but would not be too connected to contemporary political issues in the Middle East that would detract from the themes highlighted in the film. I've been told there is an Arabic translation of 'Gandhi' floating around, but have not actually seen it. Any thoughts would be welcome.

See the peacemedia clearinghouse project I am working on, http://peacemedia.usip.org

See the amazing films by www.justvision.org which I have used with many groups around the world, especially Encounter Point.
