The Animate Story of Earth

What would broaden our perception of the natural world - re-engage us to inform understanding - and result in a deep reconnection with the Earth, and with ourselves?

A groundbreaking documentary is currently in production to address this question. 

Animate Earth: Connection, Perception, Reverence is based on the book Animate Earth: Science Intuition and Gaia by ecologist Dr Stephan Harding which explores our previously learned mechanistic, reductionistic stories of Earth and  uncovers the science which clarifies that which indigienous peoples knew: that the Earth is a self-regulating, interconnected, reciprocal, cooperative living being and which requires right relationship and ethical accountablity. 

Animate Earth will explore our inherent spiritual, moral and physical connection to this originally felt and newly analyzed holistic story. 

The film will unveil the  a explore and convey an emerging new scientific understanding that combines quantities with qualities and facts with values in service of genuine participation with nature.   By integrating solid scientific reasoning and ethics, holistic science focuses, amongst other things, on the intrinsic value and beauty of natural forms and processes.  A labyrintheal, interwoven impression of the Earth as a great sentient creature full of meaning and creativity is invoked in the film by combining exciting visual subject matter and dynamic sound with supporting interviews with leading exponents of holistic thinking.
