This is a huge event happening all over the world simultaneously through TV, mobile phones, theatres, and live showings in seven languages. The idea is simply to bring the world together to watch several inspiring and transforming films chosen from over 2,500 submissions to connect us all and get the world talking. Should be amazing as it came out of one of my favorite idea generators the TED conference. Check out the talk that started the project -here-

The program on Pangea Day, May 10, is a celebration of the power of film to unite us all. You’ll see films that are funny — sad — gorgeous — stark — powerful. Voices that have never been heard before. Things you’ve never seen. Scenes from worlds you didn’t know existed. A cross-section of our amazing, complicated, noisy, beautiful world. Tune in or find a viewing party to watch on May 10, 2008, at 11:00 AM PDT.
