The Universal Language is a new documentary from Academy Award-nominated director Sam Green (The Weather Underground). This 30-minute film traces the history of Esperanto, an artificial language that was created in the late 1800s by a Polish eye doctor who believed that if everyone in the world spoke a common tongue, humanity could overcome racism and war. Fittingly, the word "Esperanto" means "one who hopes."
Note: This rare newsreel fragment is not actually part of the documentary "The Universal Language" but footage that Sam Green discovered while doing reach for the Esperanto Documentary.
