      Audience Member Fascinating thought-provoking exploration. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member This is a teacher of good ideas. Everyone should watch this. Go in the right direction. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/15/23 Full Review Audience Member not too biased I'd say ( ie: not super treehugger) Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Audience Member Surprisingly good. Was expecting a bit of a New Age hippy movie but it turned out to treat all the hippy type topics with a great deal of good sense. Basically an alternative film discussing alternatives to the not so alternative global crisis (multi dimensional crisis) that we are facing. In spite of a lot of near impossible requirement of an intrinsic universal awareness shift, it does give hope. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review Audience Member This film challenges us globally to find a new way of life that does not have such a negative impact on our earth. It starts off with the Myan 2012 predictions and uses that as a jumping point to say that even if 2012 is not the start of the apocalypse the current trends of worsening pollution, overpopulation, and over consumption are scary. The general ideas explored here are valid, but the parts where it takes the approach of talking about shamans and using hallucinogenic drugs severely discredit the filmmaker and makes it a tough sell. There are some good points to be taken away about searching for and a adopting new technology and ways of life that will be more sustainable for our world. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Great documentary! Really makes u think!! Hopefully this year is a time for change...good change!
