An absolutely mesmerizing film, love it. ... Between Martin Sheen
and the amazing Garry Davis we are entering a world of true pioneers
and leaders. A great treat.
--Meira Blaustein, Co-Founder / Executive Director WOODSTOCK FILM FESTIVAL
A true blockbuster for the human spirit! It has a profound global resonance, for our times..the world needs this story!

Awesome! What a great idea! It could really work.
Brilliant! What an engaging film about an incredible pioneer.
-- Michael Knox (US PEACE MEMORIAL FOUNDATION)
Buoyant with hope and very awed!
Cheated! (How did I not know about this my whole life?!) Inspired! (My whole life I have thought why are we always fighting our government for what we want and really need?)
--Laura Katzman
Completely relieved, I have been thinking of how to become a world citizen for years. As a person born in an island called “Borinken” before 1492 and known as “Puerto Rico” since then, is tough for me to understand how we keep an imperialist and “nation-state” system that has perpetuated slavery with the help of political parties and hedge funds. I would really like to add the world citizenship to my documents and hopefully use it as my only identification. I don’t see myself as a citizen of USA like I have been recognized legally since I was born. I just feel like a human. Like a person. I have created my “UTOEPYA” theory “Union Total Organizada Entre Personas YA!!” This movie show me that only United People of the Universe is the way.
--Jose Feliciano
Congrats for making the movie and keeping alive the dream of one man

Each year we cull through 1,500 films submitted to our festival and balance those against another 500 recommendations from our sources around the world. As we debate the final selection of 150 features for our festival, each of our 10 programmers has at least one film that he or she will fight for. This year, “The World is My Country” was mine.

Exhilirated. I have passed on the website to many others, and tonight talked about it at a meditation group. I've also had a conversation with David Gallup, and will be sending in my application for a World Citizen passport. The story of Garry Davis needs to be shared. The time is right.

Garry's story is truly interesting, inspiring, and instructive. He points
the way to our common future, if we are to have a future.
Garry's World Citizen vision is the kind of sublime audacity the world needs right now.
Garry's work was powerful and still with us, much needing our efforts to help it mature.
Get me a world passport!

Hopeful, inspired, joyous! I've shared it with others who say it’s very uplifting!
Hopeful - Invigorated - A new mindset is growing and evolving in humanity. We the people - each one of us has the universal right to live in the Culture of Peace. To make this a realty above the cult of war and violence we must engage government to build infrastructure and ministries of peace - and support this through just laws, demilitarisation and funding early peace education.

I am a world citizen and my country is the world!"
I am an activist and have not seen much change in the society, but am hopeful.
I am encouraged that there has already been so much done that I
was unaware of, that recognizes our world's one-ness in a hopeful,
courageous way. Learning how to give shape to what
we want and know to be true already just makes sense.
I am extremely impressed with Garry's story. I would like to thank all producers.
Let's try our best to make the whole world truly belong to all human beings.
I am ready to do it: be peaceful to everybody and to be the world citizen which means to look for common shared values as humans far from treating each other on any kind of boundary
I am 63 & have felt the world's people should never have war. War is always about greed & power and its always the politicians & leaders that start it. I've never felt like my thoughts & beliefs nor that of the majority of the country's ppl are acknowledged. My parents were born in 1920 & 22. Both deceased and I'm so sad they never mentioned Garry Davis to me. I feel cheated. I'm already a big supporter of Garry & becoming a citizen of the world. Today is the 1st I've ever heard about it! I'm so glad you made this movie and that I saw it! We don't need Dems & Rep. fussing like spoiled babies who each want their own way so they make a lot of money. They make too damn much money. Give them $900 a month like I get from when I could work I don't get one red cent from having raised 5 daughters & each one a solid, contributing citizen. I have to pay $200 tax for receiving back child support. What??? I'm diabetic & struggle to buy food that isn't dangerous, I can't get home health care worker cos medicaid says I must sign my house over to them if I do. I've been drawn into a war to save myself right here in America & I'll lose because my own goverment will take everything. Greed. Power. They don't care.
--Cindy Clayton
I felt hope for a better life.
I felt hopeful that people have a mechanism to obtain secular solidarity to present each voice and not be represented by a few voices given authority to rule.
I felt like I had found another person who felt the way I do. Life is tough enough, why fight each other when we all could get together and help out. If we used all the money wasted on war in the world, no one would be hungry, everyone would be housed, and we would have health care and free education.
--Gary Ash
I felt like -- where have I been when all this 'history' was happening?
I felt moved and inspired to ask questions and find out more.
I felt over awed by this man's bravery, compassion and understanding of the human condition. It was an honour to listen to this movie.
--Andrew Lewis
I felt uplifted, encouraged, re-energized.
empowered, like I could actually be FREE!!
I felt very motivated about accomplishing my own goals. I thought it was so amazing how one man was able to create an organization that actually lets people use world passports.
I forwarded the news to many friends and families
--Laila
I had not heard of Gary Davis or the movement he started until viewing this film. The approach the film maker took to explaining Garry Davis' story and the importance of the social movement he started was informative and entertaining. What Garry Davis was trying to do is even more important today as the world arms race rapidly escalates. The film is a great spring board for discussions on strategies for reducing the arms race and ending the use of war to resolve conflicts.
--Jack Friedlander
I have already watched the movie a million times and could watch it several times a day to be inspired! Who needs antidepressants
when you can watch this movie!
--Jo Beall
I have demonstrated many times against war. At 71 yrs. I am hopefull, that the time is right for change.
I have often felt that if we all let go of nationalism and focus on being humans, creatures who share this marvelous planet, that we would be much better off. This film shows me that there are like minded people throughout our world.
--Shelly Blanchard
I loved the movie at the Mpls St.Paul film festival
A powerful story! A story of power! Delightful to see and very inspiring!
Thank you for your work and for living your values.
I repeated, "yes, yes, yes!" in my head.
From deep within my heart I give thanks for everyone involved in this project, for bringing it into our world and teaching us about Garry's actions in this world. As Garry said years ago as he signed a World Passport, "This is the beginning of a whole new development in human rights." I feel we are on the verge of a paradigm shift in how we act as ONE!
--Tina Rose
I salute you all on this amazing film! Well done capturing and telling this man’s amazing life story and work!

It felt wonderful to watch. I consider myself a world citizen. This really
spoke to me.
--Gwen Wilson
It gives me hope and encouragement to continue my fight against the

It gives me hope for the world, and celebrates stepping bravely into a borderless world.
--Ann Frisch
I think it was great how you kept such a heavy subject light
by presenting Garry as the 'song and dance' man he was true to till the end. I think using animation and having Martin Sheen introduce the production kept it entertaining, non-stodgy and honest.
It's an amazing and inspiring film! Arthur Kanegis has captured the life story of Garry Davis and unearthed some rare archival footage which authenticates this unbelievable story. Garry is gone now but his work carries on and still has the potential to change the world!
--Scott Stephens
It's inspirational. Everyone should see this film.
It's unique and quite special! I say that as a tough critic – I watch hundreds of submitted films each season, and this documentary is outstanding. I couldn't take my eyes off the screen. As each new situation unfolded I found myself saying, "wow!" I found the story inspiring & entertaining, the direction & production values are very good & it has very fine editing. At the end of the film I just had to rush online to order my own world passport. This film can inspire us all to join together to build a better world.
--Elizabeth English, founder MOONDANCE INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL
I've been looking for this a long time I called myself "citizen of earth"

--Sandro Eddy Otf Wekker
I want to get a World Citizen Passport and work for peace
I was deeply moved by Garry Davis' story, and how he walked his talk. His words and actions were inspiring, and I now have a list of things I want to look into. Thank you.
It was good to see Garry in a film. I talked to him on the phone once, and was impressed so I became a world citizen.
--Cris
It was inspiring that there is such an abundance of activism.
--H
It was interesting to get all of Garry Davis's life story. I'd heard of him
and his World Citizen idea for many years, and had my own idea even
before that one should think of oneself as a member of the world,
not just a small regional part of it. Hearing the story from him
personally was impressive and really a historical treasure.
It was touching to learn about the dedication, hardships and progress of Gary and his idea.
--Nina
I was ready to join the world Citizens movement and I loved being the finale and welcoming Garry and you both to my home. (Barbara Muller)
I was surprised. I knew it had happened, I learned about this in Political Science but I had forgotten. It's an important part of World History that needs more attention.
--Marie Rivard
I wish I had known about Garry's story earlier--what a beautiful human being he was!
I wish I had known about the World Service Authority years ago!
JOYFUL
Joyful homecoming
Joyous and Hopeful
Just watched the whole film--loved it! It's such a testament to the unity of life, the reality of One Human Family, and the difference that one passionate, committed person can make!
--Laura Bernstein
Like a citizen of the world! Citizens of the world Awake and Unite! We are peaceful and humane, each one a leader, each one a country in our world.

Like I wish I had followed my passion to teach Karma farming and now envision a fully solar powered glass blowing studio.
Also, I love docs. There's one where a Pacific Islander renovates a movie theater and excites the community for movie night. I imagine myself also doing this while traveling the USA, inflating a large screen and viewing movies like this one on summer grass in town squares.
--Kyle Bekkerus
More hopeful, and wondering again why my classes in history were incomplete!
Moved, inspired by Garry's vision, hopeful, encouraged, motivated to more action.
Moved, optimistic, wanting to be a similar spiritually-based agent of social change.
--Winslow Myers
Mr Garry Davis is an amazing person, watching him telling his own story was moving. He is a reference since he was and he is still ahead of all of us humanly and socially speaking, he shows us the way for living peacefully together, We the «earthlings».
--Jean-Luc Pesce
Much better to see people without borders, separation causes animosity
and this film gave me hope and a positive path.
My wish is that every young person will be able to watch this, preferably in a group, and then be able to dialogue about what this means to their individual and collective future.
Natural Joy. Relaxed. Heart full. Grateful.

Sad that we are not already living together as one on our small planet.
Sense of wonder. How its been kept from the media and our day to day knowledge?
--Eyal Naor
Stirred and confounded: with 72 years of my own modest activism behind me, I've been exposed to a plethora of astute ideas and involved in
organizations focused on local and world community, as well
as on saving our planet and ourselves from ourselves, as it were.
The inescapable despair of currently living in a 'worst of times' epoch
and my concerns about the survival and fate of my children, grandchildren and great grandchildren (a rainbow crew who hail from six different countries and cultures, thus a mini-embodiment of Garry's vision) color every scrap of world news I'm exposed to these days. I hope this film re-boots Garry's legacy (which also harks back to World Federalism in my mind), accelerates his program and helps lead us away from the insane path we're following at present.
Studious
Tapped into my natural tenderness; hopeful and energized
TEARS OF GRATITUDE; HEART FILLED WITH RENEWED HOPE
Tears of joy and hope
Terrific
The World is My Country expertly tells the story of the inspired
and inspiring Garry Davis. The film is thoroughly absorbing - both thoughtful and entertaining in its approach. Thank you, Arthur, for your unflagging determination to bring this important slice of
history to the public’s attention.
--Susan Smoluchowski, Executive Director, Minneapolis St. Paul International Film Festival
That I agree with the idea/ideal! It makes more sense than the way it has been! This may really be a path forward with equity, our humanity and hope for our global health and wellbeing. Thank you! I declare myself a World Citizen!
That I am a citizen of the world and support this!
That I should continue to work for human rights and that there are others
who believe in this as well
That the light of peace is shining
The film is a testament to deepest truth of our true connections to each
other as citizen of one planet.
The film made me Happy and sad but also inspired
to bring the planet whole
The producer Arthur Kanegis obviously has both a personal and an emotional connection to the movie making this a fine demonstration of translating the creative vision to the people in this inspiring movie.
--Lee Benton
The same shame of the U.S. that I felt as a Field Medical
Technician during my second tour in Vietnam.
The sooner we realize that borders create conflict and that people
don't want to be restricted from free movement, the sooner we will achieve world peace. Why can't countries behave like states in the US?
--Al Jubitz
This film gives evidence of people
living with human rights without walls between countries dividing and
conquering in wars to establish power and not care and love.
This is a great documentary which should be shown as widely as possible, especially to young people. It shows what the vision, courage and determination of one individual can accomplish, against all the odds. Dreams can come true! The rich historic footage greatly adds to the appeal of this wonderful film.
This is a piece of history that should be in every history book. It is a movement that should that should be beyond all movements. It addresses the painful separation that plagues us all on the personal to the global level. It celebrates the solution of one people, one one heart, one world. Who wouldn't feel joyful?
This was a beautiful and inspiring story of a wonderful man. I'm amazed that I hadn't heard about him before! What one person can do when they have depth of integrity and a free and loving heart is so beautiful and gives hope forour transition into a more Golden time. What an amazing Seeker of the Truth. i am Very grateful for his and your offering of Love.
Thoughtful, inspired
United we can all put a stop to wars, so that our children\grandchildren can enjoy living in a Peaceful world.
Uplifted!
--Mary Grushka
Uplifted and challenged to join.
Uplifted and inspired by a movement that began before I was born and was NEVER mentioned in any of my studies or textbooks in school as a young child and/or university studies in the United States. For example, the information about the wording and the rights defined in the Ninth Amendment was enlightening to learn about. I never knew this before!
Uplifted and upbeat, before learning of World Citizen, I've identified myself as a Global Citizen.
Uplifted, hopeful for a more humane, caring, enlightened world-wide future, a realistic dream if those believing in the real possibility of that actually happening take action!...it has been shown, since Bible times and throughout history, that one person may make the difference!...Garry Davis was motivated by following his conscience, look what happened!..he had the nerve, "chutzpah" to stand up to the so-called powerful forces of authority...
--Michael Goldberg
Uplifted, joyous, hopeful and inspired to get another passport, the next level. Admiring Davis for his courage and dedication
Uplifted, like I found my way home!
Uplifted! We can unite worldwide, and take our power back. We don't need politicians to decide our fate, the health of our environment or planet. We can outlaw wars! We as world citizens can live a life more in tune with humanity, our environment. Less division more unity, after all we're one race, human.
--Sara lea Duggan
Very eye-opening. Loved the comprehensive historical context, very grounding. Loved the clarity with which the true nature and intent of Garry Davis is conveyed. An amazing human being that I had never heard of.
This is an inspiring movie and idea that I want to share.
Very good. Before I ever knew about Garry or the organization, I always felt that I was a world citizen.
--William Jones
Very happy, I believe the passport (pass-a-port) is a tool to travel. We need to dismantle the citizenship and nationality as linked terms
--Gorgievski
Very hopeful that we can do something to
stop wars
--Lupe
Very inspired!
Very inspired. I am validated.
Very motivated to be a part of this important mission.
--Dea
Very positive and connected to all others in the world.
Very thankful and more hopeful that world peace could be possible.
Very touched. Garry Davis devoted his life to the cause of peace. I think that as long as we think of ourselves as members of a particular national entity, true, positive peace will be unattainable. We must learn to cooperate for the good of all people on the planet, rather than competing for resources and power. Otherwise humanity's fate may be grim.
--Yale Jones
Want to become a world citizen
We are all children of this planet, and need to love & respect each other & 1 on 1 & community to community
--Ron Mccart
We are people all over this planet who are breathing the same air drink the same water who just want to live in peace why can’t we treat others how we want to be treated and respected?
Well I know I have ingested something meaningful because I was tearful.
What a great motivational tool to empower people of all ages. Gary was riveting. He is more impactful than people half his age.
--Marc Hoberman
What a history lesson. How have I not known of Garry Davis and World Citizen. It gave me pause to think about why we have no law against war. I am seventy seven and one month away from being seventy eight. I am so sad about war.
What a relief, I am not maladjusted! I am a 73 year old female, and my parents raised us 3 siblings to think and behave as citizens of the world. A crazy notion at the time. This movie blew my mind because it is pure unadulterated logic. I hereby, at this very moment in time, declare that I am a Citizen of the World. I need to vest myself and assimilate this moment with care and truth first and foremost, before I do any anything. Thank you.
-Clarissa Fisher
What an excellent film about a very courageous and inspiring person, not afraid of taking risks, while having a vision of a world government built upon the foundations of human rights.
Why don't more people advocate against war? Everyone should take the time to see this film.
--Eric Unger
Wonderful emotions crossing my mind. Best feelings of the brotherhood of the human being. With a lot of wishes to share it everyone and everywhere.
World Peace is possible.
Wow
WOW! I am so very impressed. The movie is a wonderful creative compilation of Garry's historical journey intersected with recent happenings with people like DiCaprio and several people with whom I have interacted like Barbara Marx Hubbard in the past, combined with cartoons, and music by Scott Stephens. The message is profound while at the same time entertaining. I was spell-bound watching it.
And I was very impressed by how sharp Garry remained right up to the end. I am sorry I lost contact with him from when I knew him in the mid-80s. Alas, I was in some respects acting as a world citizen through my work in many countries.
BRAVO TO YOU, ARTHUR AND MELANIE!
--Charolett Baker
Yes
Your film has great importance. It could be one of the catalysts in the movement to unify the world!
--Scott Stephens
