“The Peacemaker,” a documentary film by James Demo, will be shown on Thursday, Dec. 6, at 5:30 p.m. in the Pearn Auditorium of Brennan Hall.

“The Peacemaker” follows international negotiator Padraig O’Malley, who helps make peace for others but struggles to find it for himself. The film takes us from O’Malley’s isolated life in Cambridge, Massachusetts, to some of the most dangerous crisis zones on Earth, including Northern Ireland, Kosovo, Nigeria and Iraq, as he works a peacemaking model based on his recovery from addiction. In Demo’s documentary, we meet O’Malley in the third act of his life in a race against time to find some kind of salvation for both the world and himself.
