I Cannot Be Silent . . .

"I Cannot Be Silent: Testimonies of Peacemaking" is a timely and thought provoking grass roots documentary film by Vic Compher.  Compher's film celebrates the lives of several elder activists from the Philadelphia area who have spent their lives advocating for peace, and seeks to introduce their vital legacy to a new generation.
Documenting that the peace movement is alive and the torch is being passed to the next generation of peace makers "I Cannot Be Silent" is an important film.
