If you can bear the hokey/hippy-ish bits, Scared Sacred has some very good scenes. Basically, 'Visiting the 'Ground Zeros' of the planet, he asks if it's possible to find hope in the darkest moments of human history.' Canadian guy spends years travelling around the world and visiting places like Bhopal, or Cambodia, etc and interviewing the people there to see what they are doing in the aftermath of regional catastrophes to make things better. He also happens to get into Afghanistan before the current war and focus on women's rights, and get to NYC right after 9-11 to film people in the streets. You can watch the whole thing online for free: http://www.nfb.ca/film/scared_sacred It does have some saccharine/hippy overtones but all in all I really enjoyed it... sometimes uplifting is good.
