Tiel la Mondo Iras (Song in Esperanto) by Juliano Hernández Angulo

Tiel la Mondo Iras by Juliano Hernández Angulo

"This is a guy from Cuba named Juliano Hernández Angulo singing a song in Esperanto, "Tiel la Mondo Iras," which means, 'that's the way the world goes.' I guarantee that if you listen to the whole song, it will become irrevocably, perhaps even maddeningly, stuck in your head. It is profoundly catchy...I have a fantasy of this song/video becoming a huge viral smash hit."

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."
