The annual Peace on Earth Film Festival strives to “celebrate and encourage the work of independent filmmakers from around the globe on the themes of peace, nonviolence, social justice and an eco-balanced world.” The 2014 festival runs Thursday, March 6 through Sunday, March 9 at the Chicago Cultural Center. Nick Angotti, co-founder and executive director of the festival will give us a preview of some of this year’s offerings. John Marks, executive producer of the film Under the Same Sun, which will be featured at the festival, also joins us. (Photo: Flickr/woodstockfilmfest)
