I always wished myself to know what to wish.
Jehane Noujaim

Jehane Noujaim is TED prize winner for her "Control Room" a documentary film on Iraq ambigious situation of war. (she did the movie by gaining access to both Al Jazeera and the US military's Central Command offices in Qatar)
Her wish is the world-uniting international celebration of film, Pangea Day.

"freelance monotheist" (as Karen Armstrong calls itself), sounds like an interesting concept

Great clip!
