15 million people, 800 cities, all marching as ONE. On February 15th, 2003, over 15 million people marched through the streets of cities on every continent to voice their opposition to the proposed war in Iraq. Eight years in the making, flmed in seven countries, and including interviews with Damon Albarn, Danny Glover, Mark Rylance, Richard Branson, Hans Blix and Ken Loach amongst others, We Are Many charts the birth and rise of the people power movements that are now sweeping the globe. This remarkable and moving true story brings to life the biggest demonstration in human history, and how it forever changed the world.

I don't have this film, I have not watched. I probably won't watch it. At first glance I would say it tacked on to the Chilcot enquires and was never finished or ever really going to be... Damon Albarn has a speech/segment here? Why? 7-8 years in the making to lead with Albarn in a peace documentary

Forever changed the world??? I'm hoping they are not trying to imply that humans will never again go to War for totally the wrong reasons.

One of the most powerful and poignant documentaries you'll ever see! Certainly didn't expect there to be humour there too, but you cannot watch this and not feel angry with the powers that be, who inexorably drew countries into a war they didn't want through documented lies and misinformation which are exposed here. But you also to uplifted - people power has impact - just look at the protests we've had since this one, and we know many were inspired by this. I was gripped by it, and watched it more than once. I'd recommend it to anyone, and teenagers should watch it too.
