Extended Film Lesson (for feature-length version – 81 minutes)


PREPARATION


STANDARDS HOMEWORK


• Show students the feature-length version of The Day After Peace. This can be found on the School Edition DVD.


• Hand out Resource A1, One Person, One Powerful Idea, for future reference.


• Hand out Resource A3 to students and ask them to make notes in the space provided; or, to avoid the unnecessary use of paper, display the questions and ask students to copy them into their notebooks.


• Below are some questions (relating to Resource A3) and further discussion points for an extended essay, seminar, or debate relating to the feature- length film.


What were the key challenges Jeremy faced on his journey?


• Consider external challenges (i.e. those involving other people and organizations) and personal challenges (e.g., self-belief). Why was it so difficult to get the message out that the Day existed?


• Why do you think news outlets (print, TV and online) might not be interested in covering Peace Day? E.g., cynicism, not believing it’s possible, war is a better story etc. What can we do to help get the message out?


Why do you think The Day After Peace begins with Jeremy’s meeting at the League of Arab States?


• What happened there? Why was it a difficult situation? In this section of the film Jeremy says that he had made a mistake. Do you think he did make a mistake? What could he have done differently?


Why do you think it was important to show life-saving activity by humanitarian organizations in The Day After Peace?


• What does ‘symbolism’ mean? What does ‘practical’ mean? Find the sections in United Nations Resolution 55/282 that mention ‘ceasefire’ and ‘a cessation of hostilities’. Why would ‘a cessation of hostilities’ make a difference to humanitarian organizations? In the film, what difference did it make in Afghanistan?
