For the Next 7 Generations takes us on the momentous journey of thirteen Indigenous Grandmothers as they travel around the globe to promote world peace and share their indigenous ways of healing. Originating from all four corners of the world, these thirteen wise elders, shamans and medicine women, first came together in 2004 at a historic gathering. Moved by the concern for our planet, they decided to form an alliance: The International Council if 13 Indigenous Grandmothers. Facing a world in crisis, they share with us their visions of healing and a call for change now, before it is too late. Through their teachings, they are lighting a way to a peaceful, sustainable planet. Directed and produced by Emmy and Peabody Award-winning filmmaker Carol Hart. Narrated by actress and activist Ashley Judd. Score by Emmy Award-winning composer Peter Buffett. The film is in DVD format, and we will have copies available for sale. Donations are appreciated.
