Global Peace Film Festival submissions open

The 2013 Global Peace Film Festival will take place in Orlando, Florida (USA), from September 17 - 22.  Submissions for the festival have just opened.  The mission of the GPFF is to use creative media as a catalyst to inspire and educate people to initiate positive change in their communities and worldwide.  Rather than a passive experience, the Festival aims to encourage and motivate active involvement in working for peace and justice.
