With Esraa Abdel Fattah, Egyptian Democratic Academy; Ben
Moses, Director; Will Dobson, Slate Magazine, and Tarek Masoud,
HKS A Whisper to a Roar tells the heroic stories of courageous
democracy activists in five countries around the world – Egypt,
Malaysia, Ukraine, Venezuela, and Zimbabwe.
From student leaders to prime ministers and heads of state, these
activists share their compelling personal stories of struggle, past
and present, with their countries’ oppressive regimes. Shot over
three years and finalized in July 2012 by award-winning filmmaker,
Ben Moses, the film was inspired by the work of Stanford
University’s Larry Diamond, author of The Spirit of Democracy and
Director of Stanford University’s Center for Democracy,
Development, and the Rule of Law. For more information about the
film, please watch the preview.
