Nick says, Motion pictures over the past century have provided entertainment, escape and a means to inform and educate. Movies not only reflect society and its changing face, they have also been on the vanguard of trendsetting and cultural change since their inception. History as it has been recorded throughout the centuries and subsequently brought into the movies, is a documentation of war, violence and a culture of excess, repression and domination. Although Hollywood and hundreds of independent filmmakers continue to create movies of depth, humor, passion and pathos, the predominance of violence has far exceeded civil responsibility.

The Dialogue for Peace is a school and community cultural outreach program of the Peace on Earth Film Festival whose mission is to raise awareness of Peace, Nonviolence, Social Justice and an Eco-Balanced World in the following ways:
• Provide outlet and exhibition to filmmakers in the genre of peace and non-violence.
• Provide a venue where all people can see entertainment does not necessitate violence.
• Provide Community Outreach Programs to Stimulate “Dialogue for Peace”.
