Compelled by the central role of women to achieve all the UN Millennium Development Goals by 2015, their place became the foundation of the feature length documentary Lili's Journey. Lili's Journey started with two sisters' simple quest to find candid answers on what it means to be a woman in our day and age, evolving into a serendipitous voyage throughout the most diverse cultures, traditions and religions. The world is not short of courageous women. But what will it take to get on the road of this gender equal society everybody seems to be talking about lately? We travelled the world over to fnd out. From Pro Mujer in Latin America shedding light on the concept of micro credit to Queen Rania in Jordan who spoke to us about the paramount place of education. Back in New York we were inspired by Diane von Furstenberg but also Christy Turlington Burns who is putting heart and soul to accomplish positive results in Maternal Health. Spotlight on trailblazers, we encountered Zainab Salbi who, having escaped the clutches of Saddam Hussein, went on to change the lives of many women who suffered the most pervasive tactical war violence. Never failing to make an impression we were truly marked by the very charismatic recently re-elected President of Chile, Michelle Bachelet, who recently brought about the first UN agency for Women, and we celebrate the Nobel Peace Prize-winning efforts of Shirin Ebadi in modern day Iran. A groundswell is taking place. There is no doubt. But what will it take to address the issues facing women in its variety of degrees all across the globe? The film aspires to amplify the voices of exceptional women and make their case crystal clear to the public. There can be no social progress without the inclusion of women.
