CALL + RESPONSE VISION
We believe the end of modern day slavery will come from individuals who gather together to push
on businesses, media, and governments to support their existing values for human rights.
We believe that this is a bottom-up movement that needs dynamic information, sustained inspiration,
and most importantly, tactile activation.
PURPOSE
To screen our film, Call+Response, worldwide and provide audiences with low-shelf, hands-on
opportunities to act and engage through mobile phones and online platforms
BIO
CALL+RESPONSE, the first of its kind feature documentary film that reveals the world's 27 million
dirtiest secrets: there are more slaves today than ever before in human history. CALL+RESPONSE
goes deep undercover where slavery is thriving from the child brothels of Cambodia to the slave
brick kilns of rural India to reveal that in 2009, Slave Traders made more money than Google, Nike
and Starbucks combined.
Luminaries on the issue such as Cornel West, Madeleine Albright, Daryl Hannah, Julia Ormond,
Ashley Judd, Nicholas Kristof, and many other prominent political and cultural figures offer
first-hand account of this 21st century trade. Performances from Grammy-winning and critically
acclaimed artists including Moby, Natasha Bedingfield, Cold War Kids, Matisyahu, Imogen Heap,
Talib Kweli, Five For Fighting, Switchfoot, members of Nickel Creek and Tom Petty's Heartbreakers,
Rocco Deluca move this chilling information into inspiration for stopping it.
Music is part of the movement against human slavery. Dr. Cornel West connects the music of
the American slave fields to the popular music we listen to today, and offers this connection as a
rallying cry for the modern abolitionist movement currently brewing.
There is a sea of change happening in human rights activism. The world's issues cannot be
solved alone by governments and non-profits, but require community-based participation. As a
feature film, CALL+RESPONSE has the unique position of being not only a ground-genre-bending
film, but also serves as a deft tool in the hands of 21st Century Abolitionists. We provide activists
with tactile strategic online and mobile tools to fight slavery every day.
We believe this is a fight that must that is won with passion, innovation, and commitment.
