National Anthems - A Pangea Day Tribute

Take a look at these films. They are each just one minute long. They feature a choir in one country singing another country's national anthem: a simple idea that packs surprising emotional power.

Kenya sings for India:

They were shot by film directors in support of the upcoming Pangea Day, which I suggest you reserve in your calendar for Saturday, May 10.

Sites in Cairo, Kigali, London, Los Angeles, Mumbai and Rio de Janeiro will be linked live to produce a program of powerful films, visionary speakers, and uplifting music. It will be broadcast live to the world through the Internet, television, digital cinemas, and mobile phones. The 4-hour program will include visionary speakers and live music in addition to the featured films. Queen Noor of Jordan, CNN's Christiane Amanpour, musician/activist Bob Geldof and Iranian rock phenom Hypernova are among the presenters taking part.
