[psych-hr] PBS Film: "Kofi Annan: Center of the Storm"

The World Federalist Association cordially invites you to watch the premier
of "Kofi Annan: Center of the Storm," a first-time, behind-the-scenes look
at the life, role, and philosophies of Nobel Prize-winner United Nations
Secretary General Kofi Annan, widely considered to be one of the most
effective leaders in the history of the UN.

Produced by award-winning filmmaker David Grubin, the documentary follows
Annan, in cinema verité style, from October 2001, when he first learned he
had won the Nobel Peace Prize, to May 2002, when he officially declared the
independence of East Timor from Indonesia. Their cameras allow us to
eavesdrop in offices and meeting rooms, on airplanes, and even during
private moments, to listen in as Annan shapes world affairs. We sit next to
the Secretary-General as he and his team fly from Tokyo to Afghanistan,
discussing their fund raising mission for starving Afghans. We watch as
Annan prepares for the ceremony in which he will declare East Timor
independent.

The film will air on Thirteen/WNET in New York and PBS affiliates at 9 p.m.
on January 7 and will be watched across the country in organized parties.
The advance screening is co-sponsored by the Conflict Prevention Project of
the Woodrow Wilson Center, the Better World Campaign, United Nations
Association of the United States, the World Federalist Association and the
Washington, DC Area Model UN Program, with the generous assistance of
Thirteen/WNET New York.
