Students from Harrow College have watched a film offering a candid snapshot of a single day on planet Earth.

The students watched the screening of Life in a Day, directed by Kevin Macdonald (State of Play, Last King of Scotland) and produced by Liza Marshall and Ridley Scott (Alien, Blade Runner), on Wednesday 5 November.

The film is comprised of 80,000 YouTube video clips, which have been contributed by people from 192 countries.

Life in a Day aims to give a glimpse of peoples' every day experiences as a global society.

The film was screened as part of Harrow College’s Diversity Week to show students a perspective on lives that are different to their own.

BTEC Level 3 creative media production student Jacob Spanner said that the film was thought-provoking.

“Life in a Day was great at showing how people’s lives are incredibly different and a stark contrast to my own. I thought it was a really interesting piece of film and it made me think a lot.”
