Make Music, Not War

Running time: 1'34”

Production: UA 2015

Yesterday was a time of peace, today has come a time of war. What if all the world's military could resolve conflicts through music and not by playing with other people's lives? An intriguing short musical documentary, where an orchestra plays solemnly while shocking footage of post-war ruins appear on screen. An unambiguously pacifistic message is conveyed by every shot.
