If you had the world's attention for a few minutes ... what story would you tell?

You may also submit your film via Withoutabox.
Need music for your Pangea Day film? Our friends at Elias Arts, the renowned music company in Santa Monica and New York City, have created a Pangea Day Music Library. This music is a gift to Pangea Day filmmakers in appreciation for their efforts -- and because powerful images and themes deserve music to match.
