What's New
Between Peace and War
In collaboration with Société Radio-Canada.
A feature documentary in development on Canadians involved in international peace initiatives.
Between Peace and War will tell the stories of Canadians who are working to reduce armed conflict around the world. We will explore their vision, their motivation, their successes and failures as we travel with them to fragile states such as South Sudan, Mali, Nepal, Myanmar and the Middle East. Employing mediation, negotiation as well as innovative community initiatives, they are part of a new generation of front line civilian peace workers who are trying to reduce the deadly cycles of violence around the world.
Their work will be portrayed in the context of Canada’s historic role as a major contributor to UN mandated military peacekeeping missions – a role which has been significantly reduced in the last 20 years.
Between Peace and War is written and directed by Garry Beitel and produced by Barry Lazar
