Sometime ago I viewed a trailer for Life In A Day, a feature film created by executive producer Ridley Scott and director Kevin Macdonald.
Life In A Day is a historic film capturing for future generations what it was like to be alive on the 24th of July, 2010 ~ a candid snapshot of a single day on planet Earth. Compiled from over 80,000 YouTube submissions by contributors in 192 countries, Life in a Day presents a microcosmic view of our daily experiences as a global society. From the mundane to the profound, everything has its place as we spend 90 minutes gaining greater insight into the lives of people who may be more like us than we ever suspected, despite the fact that we're separated by incredible distances.
The full feature is now on Youtube...
The completed film debuted at theSundance Film Festival on January 27, 2011 and the premiere was streamed live on YouTube. On October 31, 2011, YouTube announced that Life in a Day would be available for viewing on its website free of charge, and on DVD.
