Entheogenesis:
Awakening the Divine Within
A
feature length documentary which invites the viewer to rediscover
an enchanted cosmos in the modern world by awakening to the
divine within. The film examines the re-emergence of archaic
techniques of ecstacy in the modern world by weaving a synthesis
of ecological and evolutionary awareness, electronic dance
culture, and the current pharmacological re-evaluation of
entheogenic compounds. Within a narrative framework that imagines
consciousness itself to be evolving, Entheogen documents the
emergence of techno-shamanism in the post-modern world that
frames the following questions: How can a renewal of ancient
initiatory rites of passage alleviate our ecological crisis?
What do trance dancing and festivals celebrating unbridled
artistic expression speak to in our collective psyche? How
do we re-invent ourselves in a disenchanted world from which
God has long ago withdrawn? Entheogen invites the viewer to
consider that the answers to these questions lie within the
consciousness of each and every human being, and are accessible
if only we give ourselves permission to awaken to the divine
within.
Stan
Grof, Marilyn Schlitz, Ralph Metzner, Alex Grey, Terrence
McKenna, John Markoff, Daniel Pinchbeck, and Kat Harrison
among others, postulate how the disenchantment of the modern
world may be remedied by summoning the courage to take the
next leap in the evolution of planetary consciousness.

Crossing
the Event Horizon - Rise to the Equation
by Nassim Haramein
 Quantum
Scientist, Nassim Haramein shows us that his new all-encompassing
theory seems to have parallels with ancient codes left in the
world’s oldest documents and monuments. These include the
Bible, the Koran, the Torah, the I Ching, the Mayan Tzolkn, and
the ancient pyramids and temples around the world. Much like the
path taken by Isaac Newton, Haramein’s theory was influenced
by his exhaustive study of ancient civilizations, which revealed
that they already possessed this knowledge and used it to  accomplish
many unexplained feats — such as building the Pyramids and
constructing Stonehenge. Haramein’s work has far-reaching
implications for all fields of scientific enquiry from theoretical
physics, cosmology, quantum mechanics, biology, geology and chemistry,
archaeology and anthropology as well as fundamental answers to
the nature of consciousness. “Rise to the Equation”
offers a radically new scientific paradigm and view of the universe
— and your existence in it.

Star
Dreams – Exploring the mystery of crop circles
An award winning documentary
which explores the phenomena of crop circles with interviews by
leading crop circle researchers. The film investigates the over-all
assumption of hoaxing, balls of light, sacred site connections,
media response and people’s reaction to the phenomena, and
outlines the basic understandings arrived at so far. A truly amazing
film that includes images of the major crop circles, interviews
with top researchers and a narrative line dealing with the mystical
aspects of the phenomenon.
