SYNOPSIS

Pray the Devil Back to Hell chronicles the remarkable story of the courageous Liberian women who came together to end a bloody civil war and bring peace to their shattered country. Thousands of women ordinary mothers, grandmothers, aunts and daughters, both Christian and Muslim came together to pray for peace and then staged a silent protest outside of the Presidential Palace.

Armed only with white T-shirts and the courage of their convictions, they demanded a resolution to the country s civil war. Their actions were a critical element in bringing about a agreement during the stalled peace talks. A story of sacrifice, unity and transcendence, Pray the Devil Back to Hell honors the strength and perseverance of the women of Liberia. Inspiring, uplifting, and most of all motivating, it is a compelling testimony of how grassroots activism can alter the history of nations.

Pray the Devil Back to Hell is directed by Academy Award-nominated, Emmy-winning documentary filmmaker Gini Reticker and produced by Abigail E. Disney, who is also the Co-Founder and Co-President of the Daphne Foundation.

The film has screened in 7 continents, and has garnered numerous awards at film festivals, including the Tribeca Film Festival (Best Documentary), Jackson Hole Film Festival (Audience Choice: Documentary), Silverdocs (Witness Awards), Heartland Film Festival (Best Documentary), Tri Continental Film Festival in India (Jury Award for Best Film), One World International Human Rights Festival in Prague (Rudolf Vrba Award in the Right To Know Competition), and Movies That Matter Festival (Golden Butterfly).

The leader of the Mass Action Campaign for Peace featured in the film, Leymah Gbowee, has been awarded the Blue Ribbon for Peace by Harvard's Kennedy School of Government, and in May 2009 she accepted the John F. Kennedy Profile in Courage Award on behalf of her countrywomen. In addition, Leymah has won the 2009 Gruber Women's Rights Prize which honors an individual who has brought about significant advances in the quest for peace and gender equality in Africa.

The New York Times calls it "Uplifting, disheartening, inspiring, enraging" and the LA Times hails Pray the Devil Back to Hell as "One of the truly heartening international political stories of recent years."
