Satellite Launches A Moment on Earth Trailers

Satellite Films releases two trailers for its independent documentary series, A Moment on Earth. On August 5, 2004, 60 filmmakers in over 40 countries and across all seven continents captured a single moment on Earth. The project explores the diversity of activity and experiences taking place on our planet at any given moment.

(PRWEB) July 27, 2005 -- Satellite Films releases two movie trailers for its independent documentary series A Moment on Earth. To view the trailers, go to: http://www.momentonearth.com.

The trailer for the first part in the series, A Moment on Earth, combines pieces of dialogue from a number of the filmmakers commentaries in order to tell the story behind the capturing of the moment. The first filmmaker shown is Sunday Ogundele of Nigeria.

The trailer for the second part in the series, A Moment on Earth: 12 Hours Later, features a scene from a wrestling arena in Mexico City, Mexico contrasted with a Buddhist sanctuary in Krabi, Thailand.

In seeing so many real-life scenes all captured at the same moment in time, this project forces viewers to think on a global level -- not just in the usual terms of jobs, trade and globalization -- but in terms of humanity," says Jereme Axelrod, the projects director. It allows us to empathize with the differences between us at any given moment, as well as the many things we inevitably hold in common."
