NOBELITY follows filmmaker Turk Pipkin's personal journey to find answers from a diverse group of Nobel Laureates about the future of our planet 50 years from now, and the kind of world our children and grandchildren will know. It is a beautiful and moving film that seeks to educate and motivate the public about the world's most pressing problems and what we can all do to make the world a better place for future generations to come.
Filmed across the U.S., and in France, England, India and Africa, NOBELITY combines the insights of nine distinguished Nobelists with a first-person view of world problems and the children who are most affected by them. The Distinguished Laureates of NOBELITY include: Desmond Tutu, (Nobel Peace Prize, 1984.); Dr. Harold Varmus, Nobel Prize for Physiology and Medicine, 1989); Director, Sloan Kettering Cancer Center; Sir Joseph Rotblat, (Nuclear Physicist/Disarmament Activist Nobel Peace Prize, 1995), a contemporary of Einstein; Wangari Maathai, (Nobel Peace Prize, 2004), founder of the Pan-African Green Belt Movement; and Jody Williams from the International Campaign to Ban Land Mines (Nobel Peace Prize, 1997); and five others.
