Tibetan Monk Palden Gyatso in Conversation with Annie Lennox (1998)

Michael 'Wolf' Pasakarnis often claimed that he walked in two worlds at once. An artist with a kind heart and adventurous spirit, he was struck and killed by lightning at 29 years old. He left stunning evidence that he knew where, when, and how it would happen. He came back with an important message for all of us. Now Wolf’s story is a brave and captivating documentary, Wolf’s Message, inspired by the book of the same name by acclaimed author and spiritual teacher, Suzanne Giesemann, which explores the profound true story of a young man's afterlife communication. Directed by filmmaker Jim Spruell, Wolf's Message follows the true story of Wolf's parents, Mike and Beth Pasakarnis. After his passing, they discovered a poem and drawings he left behind, along with other clues about how he would depart from this world. Through Giesemann, they began receiving undeniable and astonishing messages from beyond, offering irrefutable proof of his continued presence. Through intimate interviews, expert insights, and compelling real-life accounts, Wolf’s Message delves into the nature of consciousness, the continuity of love, and the

Set against the wild beauty of Ireland’s Beara Peninsula, this intimate documentary follows the De Ruiter family and their deep relationship with the honey bee after 25 years of life and beekeeping in Ireland. From pollen to pot, the film offers a poetic and immersive portrait of the apiary process, revealing how honey is shaped by landscape, season, family knowledge and the fragile rhythms of nature. Through the family’s daily stewardship, the documentary explores the cultural folklore of bees, the urgent environmental challenges facing pollinators today, and the powerful role conscious human care can play in protecting the natural world. Interwoven with original music and poetry, the film journeys alongside the honey bee and its keepers, uncovering a story of resilience, adaptation, ecology and interdependence. Both lyrical and grounded, this documentary is a moving celebration of Irish beekeeping, sustainable living, family tradition and the quiet intelligence of the honey bee. ------- Chapters ▷ 00:00 - Opening: The Honey Bee and the Irish Landscape ▷ 02:15 - The De Ruiter Family: Keepers of the Hive ▷ 05:36 - Life on the

The story we are offering to tell will follow the evolution of our ancestors: we will go from Africa to Asia, to Oceania, to Europe and to the Americas. Our story will span several hundred thousands of years. And in terms of dramatic progression, the film will articulate itself around several themes whose titles suggest our very first behaviours: speaking, creating, inventing, writing, and ruling. These verbs will be studied in their larger sense and will allow us to explore the various facets of humanity as they became more and more ingrained throughout our journey around the planet. These verbs will also structure how the 52-minute episodes will be edited: the first episode could focus on language, the second on art and culture, and we will work out the third and fourth episodes in our writing phase. In order to more or less straightforwardly re-enact an incredibly complicated story that spans more than 200.000 years, the films will follow a chronologically linear structure, with substantial flash-forwards allowed now and then. By reminding our audience the scale of time that separates

December 21, 2012. This date, identified by the Maya nearly 1,400 years ago, has in recent years become the source of great curiosity and debate. Some believed it would bring catastrophic events. Others, an era of enlightenment. But what did the ancient Maya themselves believe? In "2012: The Beginning", we travel the world to examine what the Sacred Maya texts really say. Original title: 2012: The Beginning © 2012, Licensed by First Hand Films At the ruins of Copán, Honduras, we go where few individuals and even fewer cameras have gone: 20 meters underground, to the spectacularly preserved, 1,600-year-old Margarita Temple. In Dresden, Germany, we slip through a golden, hieroglyph-covered door and enter a darkened room containing some of the world’s most significant books from four millennia—including the famed Dresden Codex, one of only three remaining authenticated manuscripts of the ancient Maya, and the earliest known book from the Americas. In the Highlands of Guatemala, the veil is lifted from the mysterious world of Maya shamanism. And in México, we examine the little-seen Tortuguero Monument 6, the only known inscription

In the harsh winter of 324, a dazzling cavalry officer from the Roman Imperial Guard stop his horse in front of a nearly naked man, then take from his shoulders his immense white cloak, made from two pieces of fabric, one lined with sheepskin, and separate the two parts with his sword to make the unfortunate wretch warm. His charitable gesture contains all the force of this emblematic character from the dawn of Western Christianity. In 2016, we shall be celebrating the 1700th anniversary of this exemplary Christian's birth, and it's a moment to take full stock of the legacy of this soldier, monk, exorcist, bishop and pilgrim. This film gives a voice to those who are in the best position to speak about this Saint, regarded as the founder of a certain unity in Gaul, and who would be worshiped by the kings of France from Clovis to Charlemagne. Churchmen and committed citizens will give their views on the meaning of "sharing", "mercy" and "charity". Today, political, religious, and philosophical discourse is still hungry for the concept of sharing.
