Join the Moot Court Board and the International Law Society for a screening of ALL RISE. An introduction will be provided by Isabella Bellera Landa, a White & Case associate specializing in international arbitration practice. ALL RISE explores how international disputes can be resolved in the courtroom through the journeys of seven passionate students of law from India, Israel, Jamaica, Palestine, Russia, Singapore, and Uganda whoo compete in the world championships in Washington, DC, of the Philip C. Jessup International Law Moot Court Competition (the "Jessup"), the world's largest simulated court competition. The "court" is the International Court of Justice ("ICJ"), the judicial arm of the United Nations. Against this backdrop, this moving film lays bare the struggles, triumphs and transformations they experience alone and together. Sponsored by the International Law Society and the Moot Court Board. Lunch will be provided by White & Case. For more information, please contact Kelsey Glover at kelsey.glover@law.duke.edu.
