Producer-director Peter Watkins worked with support groups in nations around the world, raising money and assembling casts and crews. During 1984-85 the film was shot in the U.S., Canada, Norway, Scotland, France, West Germany, Mozambique, Japan, Australia, Tahiti, and Mexico. Watkins talks with families and citizen groups in these nations about the network of social and political issues we are all part of--especially about the world arms race and its relationship to world hunger, gender politics, and the functioning of the mass media. Survivors of the bombings of Hiroshima and Hamburg reminisce about their experiences, and groups of people psychdramatize scenarios the threat of a Third World War might necessitate. Most important, however, as The journey develops, the people Watkins works with begin to explore possibilities for moving through the barriers that separate peoples, toward a more peaceful, synergic world. The journey is a 14 1/2 hour film which can be experienced over a weekend or over an extended period of time (the film is divided into 19 sections)--Canyon Cinema catalog 7, p. 353. 541 0 PFA 1620-01-11457.
