It feels a bit like an atom bomb of progression. The film festival creates its own kind of vortex drawing forth the most amazing people, information, projects and products. They select the best of the films and documentaries that feed body, mind and soul. It is a film festival for conscious media. It is a film festival for awakening and transformation. That is just one example of the awesome things that happen at this film festival, which I have fallen in love with. It was an awesome idea proposed by the festival organizers called “reel healing”. After the Q and A, working with the raw emotional state that the film leaves you in, I offered a 50 minute long supplementary healing experience for the audience. Seeing this version made me very excited for the official full version, which is being submitted to film festivals around the world this fall.Īfter each showing, Paola, Blake and I got up with Sheron Foster (the lead programmer for the film festival), to answer questions the audience had about the film.
The film creates such a mix of emotions from despair to shock to awe to total inspiration. Watching this film allowed me to see myself and my life as if I were on the outside looking in.
Phoenix to sedona skin#
It is very different to live my life in my skin and to see my life from the outside. It was much more intense than I had anticipated. I had not seen any of the footage before sitting in front of it myself in the first showing. It was greeted by two completely sold out audiences. The documentary by the Italian director Paola Marino (which was made about my life) made its first appearance in the world as a ‘work in progress’ here at the festival. I have come here in response to the invitation to attend the Illuminate Film Festival.
It picks on you like a mean older sibling that throws you to the floor and sits on top of you motionless while you writhe around underneath it. The minute you open the door, the heat antagonizes you.
