The Negotiators - How To Make Peace
58 min. | Closed Captioned
A film by Rosalind Bain
"This is a film that concentrates on the human consequences of violence but does its best not to show the physical reality of conflict – which could overpower its central message of faith that talking works to end wars...Bain’s film offers a rarely seen glimpse into the world of those behind the headlines in conflict resolution."
Nick Holdsworth, Modern Times Review
The Negotiators - How To Make Peace is a journey into the many conflict zones that are currently shaking our world. It is about creating pathways to finding solutions to solve them and, above all, it is a portrait of the people who make conflict resolution possible in armed conflicts in the 21st century.

Negotiating in international conflicts is an art where all parties have much to gain. Those who seek solutions to armed crises need diplomacy and patience. With some of the most entrenched conflicts on the planet in the backdrop, we see these conflicts through the eyes of the negotiators and learn of challenges and personal sacrifices as they try to resolve problems in the most difficult of circumstances.

From Colombia to South Sudan, The Negotiators - How To Make Peace takes place in several countries that share a common reality: they have all been torn apart by internal conflicts for decades. Against the backdrop of these clashes, the documentary details the work of those seeking solutions on the ground. Through the compelling testimonies of the protagonists, we discover different aspects of their work, their assessment of the situation, but also the personal cost they have to bear when trying to resolve conflicts in the most difficult circumstances. As we move from one situation to another, we get to know four very different people who, through their lives and professional careers, illustrate the different stages and paths that peacemakers must take.
