Gandhi
Join PON for a screening of the legendary Academy Award-winning film Gandhi.
Gandhi (1982), directed by Richard Attenborough, is about the life of Mohandas Gandhi (also known as Mahatma Gandhi, Great Soul), leader of the nonviolent resistance movement against British colonial rule in India during the first half of the 20th century. The film won eight Oscars in 1982, including the Academy Award for Best Picture.
This film is an insightful introduction into one man’s belief in the concept of peaceful revolution. It is part of a series of discussions about the intersection of negotiation and nonviolent action.
“An eye for an eye only ends up making the whole world blind.”
–Mahatma Gandhi
