Comments on: "The Sacred Run, the lotus and the
feather"
"Not only is SACRED RUN a film that teaches
and entertains,
it is also a movie that takes you on a most inspiring physical
adventure and
then launches you out of the theatre or off the couch convinced
that you
can save the planet."
Ezra Soiferman,
Filmmaker, (MAN OF GREASE, TREE WEEKS)
Montreal, Quebec
"This film is more a meditation than a
film and like all potent
meditation, it purifies the one who watches it. Without the journey,
what is life?"
Art Seligman,

Associate Member

"I was moved at how this film captured
the depth of my heart.
The truths spoken and all the images seen remind us that peace
on earth must prevail and all nations must come together to end
war.
At this crucial time in history, with impending war on the horizon,
THE SACRED RUN provides viewers with important lessons that inspire
us to re-evaluate our own personal connection to the earth and
responsibility to create peace."
Fiorina Di Bacco,
Reiki Master/Teacher,
Toronto, Ontario
"The Sacred Run weaves together the "feather"
of ancient Native
American wisdom with the "lotus" of Buddhism and indigenous Japanese
traditions showing that all people are one at heart -- that we
can be
united in community, while honoring diversity. It is a powerful
call
for peace and justice. We are each inspired to take our rightful
place
as a life-supporting species -- to help heal the planet and to
live in
harmony with each other and with all living beings on Earth which
provides for us so bountifully."
Manna Jo Greene,
Program Director,

Environmental Director,

"The Sacred Run is a must-see for anyone
comitted to the re-humanizing
of humanity which necessitates the deep instrospection Ms. Sadler's
film
evokes - of particular importance in these tormented times, especially
if
the world is going to be saved from devastation war would inevitably
wreak."
Ken Fernandez, B.C.L., LL.B.,
Executive Director
Horizons Political Consulting Agency
"The essence of filmmaking is to teach
and to share. The Sacred Run by
Andrea Sadler teaches us about love and shares with us a sense
of hope.
I can offer no higher praise."
Murray Jurak,
First Nations Filmmaker,
Edmonton, Alberta

The diverse film community Montreal plays home to is reflected
here in the broad range of names included. As well, one dear reader
seems to be up on a big new thing about town, a your relatively
unknown quebecois filmmaker we'd never heard of before, who goes
by the name of Stephane Speilberg. Thanks for keeping up our street
cred for us-we always like to deep up on what the hot new names
of the future are going to be.
