As a viewing (and listening) experience, Sacred is never less than hypnotic. Go to Full Review
Katie Walsh Los Angeles Times 05/22/2017
Abstract, yet moving... The film articulates a concept of universal humanity. No matter the religion or circumstances, we all have the same desires for peace and connection throughout life. Go to Full Review
John DeFore The Hollywood Reporter 05/09/2017
Rarely lingers on any subject for long and even more rarely inquires about the beliefs behind the ceremonies it observes. Go to Full Review

01/13/2019 No comment documentary movie. Saw it using boxxy software app on my android. See more 03/17/2018 It’s definitely an awakening to global religious belief systems. The cinema photography was explicit due to the forty independent filmmakers that contributed that made this documentary possible. Indeed go and see it. The captivation of varied levels of innocence is astonishing. The commonality which humans share globally in respecting the existence of a higher power with great reverence touches the viewer’s cord.
