100 Cities. One Night for Peace.

On February 15th, 2003, up to 30 million people, many of whom had never demonstrated before, came out in nearly 800 cities around the world to protest against the impending Iraq War. WE ARE MANY is the never-before-told story of the largest demonstration in human history, and how the movement created by a small band of activists changed the world.

This fearless, thought-provoking documentary is the remarkable inside story behind the first ever global demonstration, and it’s surprising and unreported legacy.

**This special event – marking International Day of Peace – will feature exclusive music performances; followed by a screening of WE ARE MANY and a Q&A panel discussion featuring the movie’s director, Amir Amirani, cast members and leaders from key activist organizations.**
