Every three seconds. Every three seconds, someone in the world dies from hunger or extreme poverty. In a society where materialism reigns, what is the real secret to happiness? Award-winning filmmaker Daniel Karslake (For the Bible Tells Me So) tells the unforgettable stories of five regular folks – a boy, a college student, a thirty-something and two seniors – whose lives went from ordinary to extraordinary based on one simple decision: to engage. Each chose action over apathy, and in the process, each one has had a significant and lasting impact on two of the most challenging, yet solvable, issues of our time: hunger and extreme poverty.
About two years ago, Daniel reached out and invited me to take part in the making of his film. You can see a short trailer of the film above, or visit the film website for further details and how to watch or order. Every Three Seconds is a film about doing well by doing good – about changing the world and changing your own life in the process. Watch it. TRAILER — I AM ELEVEN.
