Ben Cole, the film's cinematographer, will present the film, afterwards he will answer questions.

An evening of philosophy and music, the opportunity to see the world in one movie.
“…dazzling”. The Times

”Jubilant, unique, ambitious, epic, dramatic, life-affirming and positively absorbing…a musical and visual feast” DVD Monthly

“1 Giant Leap represents a genuinely ground-breaking audio-visual project of global dimensions”. The Daily Telegraph

“Totally unique.” Hot Ticket. Evening Standard

“1GL is more than a fab record (which it is) and more than a thought-provoking film (which it is). It is-and no apologies here to those of you with sensitive bull detectors-a manifesto for a better world. And you can dance to it”. The Daily Express

“... incredibly seductive, and is a visual-and musical-treat. DVD Review

“…who ever thought of putting Asha Bhosle and Michael Stipe together ought to be given the keys to heaven right now.” Essential World release. Mojo

“Gather round the modern world's campfire; the movie screen, television set, or laptop DVD player, and let this film's message wash over you in these troubled times. For "1 Giant Leap" is nothing short of an electronic drum circle, drawing the citizens of Earth together for a planet-6wide cautionary pep talk. Mesmerizing and utterly profound, yet wonderfully accessible, "1 Giant Leap" reminds us all of what we're capable of achieving”. * * * * Filmthreat.com

“Since I recorded, and co-produced Tubular Bells in the 70s I have never come across a more ground breaking musical, and in this case, visual project. It is a truly brilliant piece of work with wonderful songs and instrumental pieces all woven into a big picture.” Simon Heyworth. Music Week
...the potential is exceptional...File under Experimental but extremely percussive groove
