Can we change our brains?
Neuroscientists now tell us that the practice of mindfulness literally changes the brain in positive ways. The Mindfulness Movie is a fun and educational journey showcasing the worldwide brain research proving the benefits of mindfulness and the public’s increasing awareness and acceptance of the practice. It celebrates those who have reshaped mindfulness into everyday, practical skills.
The Mindfulness Movie explores answers to two basic questions:... what is mindlessness? And what is mindfulness? The viewer is guided through the neuroscience of why the brain defaults to a mindless mode 90% of the time. Leading world experts discuss eight essential aspects of mindfulness, including easy to understand studies showing why we function at a more highly effective level when we change our default mindless mode to a mindful mode.
The Mindfulness Movie tells the heartfelt stories of military personnel and teenagers using mindfulness to overcome stress, anxiety, depression, and PTSD. These real life examples of personal initiative and success truly inspire the viewer to engage the world in a new way.

Imagine living with no bills..
Life Off Grid is a film about people who have chosen to build their lives around renewable energy, with beautiful, inspiring, and often challenging results.
Jonathan Taggart and Phillip Vannini spent two years travelling across Canada to find 200 off-gridders and visit them in their homes. They met off-gridders in every single province and territory and through their film they narrated our travels and chronicled in depth the experiences, challen...ges, inventions, aspirations, and ways of life of people who have chosen to radically re-invent daily life in a dramatically innovative but also quite traditional way.

Is inner peace and self-fulfilment possible for each of us?
In A Mindful Choice, two modern day monks meet a diverse range of people using meditation to create a better life. Ballet dancers and writers, stressed business people, a cancer patient, foster children and maximum-security prisoners. People who have gone through marriage breakups, cancer diagnoses, and experienced serious violence and trauma.
In this inspiring film, you'll meet people who have left their self-doub...ts and inner demons behind so they could become better parents or partners. People who now channel their inner peace into creative projects that bring joy to others.
Stunning cinematography combined with the power of stories from people sharing from a place of profound peace delivers a palpable and moving experience.
A Mindful Choice asks the question: ‘If peace is possible for individuals: could it be possible for communities, and all of humanity?

Although he was born more than 800 years ago, Rumi's story is divinely relevant to us today. His works continue to resonate and inspire people all over the world.
Across time, place and culture, Rumi's poems articulate what it feels like to be alive, and help us understand our own search for love and the ecstatic in the coil of our daily lives. In the course of his life, Rumi left us a literary legacy that has earned him the title “The Shakespeare of love” and "the greatest ...mystical poet of all time”.
Rumi Returning explores how the work of the so-called "Sultan of Lovers" provoked such a devoted following. Many believe Rumi’s universal, tolerant mysticism could answer to the clash of civilizations facing humanity today. Shot mostly in Turkey, where the great mystic lived and taught 800 years ago, RUMI RETURNING features Sufi music, high-definition visuals of the Whirling Dervishes that Rumi inspired, and the medieval architectural masterpieces of the region.
With commentary by experts including the great Rumi interpreter Coleman Barks, Dr. Akbar Ahmed, mystical scholar Andrew Harvey, this inspiring film asks the question: “Does an 800 year old mystic hold the secret to world peace?”

Over 65 million people around the world have recently been forced from their homes to escape famine, climate change and war in the greatest human displacement since World War II.
Human Flow, an epic film journey led by internationally renowned artist Ai Weiwei, gives a powerful visual expression to this massive human migration. The documentary elucidates both the staggering scale of the refugee crisis and its profoundly personal human impact.
Captured over the course of an ...eventful year in 23 countries, the film follows a chain of urgent human stories that stretches across the globe in countries including Afghanistan, Bangladesh, France, Greece, Germany, Iraq, Israel, Italy, Kenya, Mexico, and Turkey. Human Flow is a witness to its subjects and their desperate search for safety, shelter and justice: from teeming refugee camps to perilous ocean crossings to barbed-wire borders; from dislocation and disillusionment to courage, endurance and adaptation; from the haunting lure of lives left behind to the unknown potential of the future.
Human Flow comes at a crucial time when tolerance, compassion and trust are needed more than ever.
This visceral work of cinema is a testament to the unassailable human spirit and poses one of the questions that will define this century: Will our global society emerge from fear, isolation, and self-interest and choose a path of openness, freedom, and respect for humanity?
