We once believed the sun revolved around the earth. Now, our ecological emergency demands another profound and urgent shift in the way we perceive ourselves as a part of the earth and the cosmos.
Song of the Sun is a hybrid of visual poem and documentary, yet more than either. The film engages on all levels—the senses, the mind, the heart and the spirit.
Song of the Sun is a documentary film for our time, taking place at the edge of evolution. As major structures and systems of our world break down, and our planetary fever rises, we stand on the brink. It is our estrangement from the natural, more-than-human world that has brought us to this point. The ecological emergency of our time is demanding an urgent response from humanity--a profound shift in perception.
We are being called to remember our place in the universe, to participate at deeper levels in the re-balancing and healing of our planetary home. We are being asked to dig deep into a full-bodied awareness of the unity of life. Song of the Sun is a movie that re-awakens this consciousness—a unified consciousness, a deep ecological awareness— one that re-enchants the world.
