Illuminate
Members of the core team of the Illuminate Film Festival had an all day final meeting today for this year. The festival was a success for the fifth year in a row. Each time, we start in the early fall and begin searching for conscious cinema to share in the summer festival of the next year. We had a wonderful selection of twenty six inspiring films in 2018. Along with the films, we offered reel healings. Reel healings are additional loving workshops, that apply the principles often featured in the movie they follow. We had ninety five conscious movie industry filmmakers attend as well. They have their own workshops and panels to further create more conscious movies.
We sell about 7,000 tickets to the events. Every year there are wonderful stories of people’s lives being changed. We are sensing a conscious movement. More and more folks are desiring to see movies that make a positive difference in their lives. Perhaps some day in the future, movies that emphasize violence, getting revenge and waging war will be in the minority. Films that show love and caring and compassion will be the rule.
We can all help create this right now. Find out about film festivals in your area that show wonderful movies and attend. Illuminate Film Festival has a membership program where you can join and support magnificent living. Go to illuminatefilmfestival.com The people of planet Earth are at a crossroad. There is so much destruction of our environment. We have elected leaders who have total self interest and all our species are suffering for our not standing up for them. It is time for those of us who love the Earth and it’s inhabitants to do all we can to save it.
If you know of folks who are doing good deeds, please let us know. We can find filmmakers who want to tell their story. We want to create cinema that celebrates their courage and passion. From my illuminated heart to yours, Thomas
