In 1968, the day after the assassination of Dr Martin Luther King Jr., a third-grade teacher in a small Iowa town made a decision that would reverberate around the world. Jane Elliott divided her all-white class according to eye colour and gave her students a powerful, unforgettable experience of discrimination.

More than five decades later, Elliott remains one of the most uncompromising voices in the fight against racism and prejudice.

Jane Elliott Against the World explores the woman behind the groundbreaking "Blue Eyes/Brown Eyes" exercise, her extraordinary life and the controversy, resistance and personal cost that have accompanied her refusal to stay silent.

I Will Tell International Film Festival is a pioneering celebration of powerful, purpose-driven storytelling, marking 20 years of award-winning film premieres, music, creativity and conversations exploring faith, justice, identity and the issues shaping our world.
