HOPE

Hope is shaped around the knowledge and ideas of Willy Whitefeather,
a man in his sixties of Cherokee ancestry, a fascinating storyteller, healer, survivalist and an individual of wisdom and heart. Using traditions and stories from Native American and world cultures, the film combines dreams, images and reminiscences from our collective memory to send a message of hope for the future. Now is the time to reconnect with Spirit, to recognize the effects of our actions, to evaluate the underlying causes of suffering and to reshape our life and our world into a harmonious one.

The animated scenes are in styles reminiscent of Pueblo pottery design, Sioux painted hides, Petroglyph drawings and Hopi mural paintings. The soundtrack is similarly layered with the sounds of a beating heart, breathing, wooden flutes, drums, rattles, a traditional Cherokee lullaby and original music. Hope urges us to change course and follow a path of wisdom, responsibility, beauty, simplicity and gentleness.

Directed by Catherine Margerin
Produced by Mary Mathaisell

We can change this world into that world we really want to live in. There is the possibility for healing humanitiy and our beautiful planet in every single PRESENT MOMENT. And there is also the realistic chance to not only get back what had been in former times.

And everyONE of US can do his unique steps in EVERY MOMENT.
