On July 24, 2010, thousands of people around the world uploaded videos of their day to YouTube to take part in Life in a Day, a historic cinematic experiment to create a documentary film about a single day on earth. From over 80,000 submissions, including 1,500 from Australia, executive producer Ridley Scott and Oscar winning director Kevin Macdonald have crafted a 90-minute feature film that paints a surprising, moving and entertaining portrait of the world today.

The movie premiered at the Sundance Film Festival in January and was simultaneously live streamed on YouTube. The film arrived down under at the Sydney Film Festival and subsequently at the Melbourne Film festival, and we’re proud to announce that Life in a Day is now playing in select Chauvel Cinemas.

Happy watching!
