Synopsis

Behind-the-Chambers is a series of biographical interviews with experts in the fields of international law, international relations and related subjects. Our interview partners are entirely free to express their thoughts and put their arguments forward, neither length nor topics are restricted. Two questions however are at the heart of their interviews: what their own personal experience about the current state of international law is and what they believe international law holds in stall in terms of its future promises. The discourse thus created by “Behind-the-Chambers law” serves diplomats, academics, international practitioners, students and anybody interested in discovering the voices of those well versed in the subject. The series is a follow on from the experience of “AdvocacyProductions” first documentary on international law, broken-the-film.com/. The distribution of all educational documentary products originating from AdvocacyProductions, including “Behind-the-Chambers” is managed by “FacilitationResource” the company's educational arm, operating out of Geneva. AdvocacyProductions' strategy is to partner with international law-based organisations not only in Geneva, the humanitarian capital of the world, but with academic institutions anywhere. We are a small team of specialists with expertise in creating humanitarian and development related documentary and advocacy products. We believe in knowledge sharing, training and education in giving voice to the voiceless through film.
