Life in a Day


The short documentary film 'Life in a Day' (2011) captures a day in the life of over 400 people as they wake up to and exist in July 24th 2010. The film pays homage to the moments, the rituals and the routines of humanity throughout the globe and identifies the differences and similarities in varying lives of people.
"Betsy Sharkey described the progression of the film: "Beginning with videos that start pre-dawn then moving through morning, afternoon and evening, ... the rituals that define a day begin to emerge. Beyond an extraordinary range of cultures, terrain and styles reflected, which are captivating on their own, the film stands as a stirring reminder of how ordinary and yet eclectic humanity can be. If "Life in a Day" is any measure, we are a quirky, likable, unpredictable and yet predictable bunch."
