Seeds
of Compassion: Centered around
a 4 day event in Seattle with His Holiness the Dalai
Lama and Reverend
Desmond Tutu, Seeds of Compassion explores the role
of compassion in our modern world. Cutting edge neuroscience
makes a compelling case for the pivotal role of compassion
in brain development while average people are being
called to compassionate action. What does all this
mean? Why is it significant? Is compassion a new
social movement?
The
New Field: A new series on environmental
issues and lifestyle choices. Produced in partnership
with
Global Village Media, GreatFull Productions, and
PBJS.
John
Muir and the New World: A feature
length documentary, co-produced with GreatFull Productions
and Global
Village Media, on the extraordinary life and influence
of this one man in American history. John Muir has
always been
one of the tall trees in environmentalism and
western
ecological thinking. He was one of the first
conservationists in American history and is still regarded
widely
as the founder of the conservation movement in this
country
(including the Sierra Club).
Common
Fire: An educational documentary series based on
the award
winning books “Common Fire” and “Leadership
Can be Taught” by Sharon Daloz Parks.
Deep
Down: A feature-length documentary
about Yoga, as told by its most dynamic, popular
teachers,
and
as seen in the life-changing experiences of
some of its
17 million students. Some time in the last
ten years, Yoga went from crunchy, New Age
fringe
to smooth,
marketable mainstream. In four years alone,
students increased
more than 400%. Why? What happened? Deep Down
isn’t
about ancient India, or esoteric texts or rituals,
but about right here, right now. It’s
about the role Yoga is playing in a pivotal
moment in human history,
when global interconnectivity is fostering
an awareness – however “inconvenient” – of
how our individual behaviors effect our own
lives, our culture, and our environment.
