Following a day in the life of six African people from six different countries, “One Day in Africa” explores the range of diversity on the massive continent.

Previously, I interviewed filmmaker Brook Silva Braga about his experience shooting the film, and how it differed from his backpacker classic A Map For Saturday.

After a successful run at the film festivals, One Day In Africa is now coming to DVD. To celebrate, we’ve giving away 3 copies to lucky contest winners.

CONTEST IS NOW OVER

HOW DO I KNOW IF I WON?

Winners will be announced at the end of the week. If your account is selected, we’ll get in touch via Twitter.

Chances are, you’ve seen one of the massively popular music videos from the Playing For Change project. “Stand By Me” has over 12 million views on Youtube, and defies anyone to watch without chills running down their spine.

In their own words:

Playing for Change is an extraordinary effort to unite musicians and vocalists from diverse parts of the globe, while at the same time seeking to immerse audiences in a multimedia movement to inspire, connect and bring peace to the world through music.

Now, a 57 minute version of the feature length documentary film, “Playing For Change: Peace Through Music,” is airing nationally on PBS throughout August. Check the full schedule here.

Also, the Playing For Change band is going on tour this fall. See if they’re coming to your area.

To celebrate, BNT is giving away 3 copies of the Playing For Change music CD, which also features a performance DVD encompassed in one beautiful package.

WINNER’S ANNOUNCED!
