THE VETO

For close to eighty years, the UN Security Council permanent member veto power has been the subject of constant debate, both within the UN and without. 

The veto itself isn't going away—it's 'veto-proof'. But when vetoes are cast in the face of genocide, war crimes, and crimes against humanity, obligations under international law and the UN Charter must be considered. Such uses have led to massive loss of life, displacement of millions, and the multilateral order pushed to a breaking point. 

The film, featuring leading global experts, puts aside assertions of the impossibility of change and explores real paths to breaking the Security Council deadlock. 

'The film deserves the urgent attention from leaders from around our very troubled world.’ Test audience feedback
