(New York, NY) Can we evolve consciousness? Can we align ourselves with nature?
Can we redesign our civilization? These questions and more are explored in the
new documentary film, 2012: Time for Change (Mangusta Productions).
Directed by Emmy Award nominee João Amorim, the film follows journalist
Daniel Pinchbeck, author of the bestselling book, 2012: The Return of Quetzalcoatl,
on a quest for a new paradigm that integrates the ancient wisdom of tribal cultures
with modern science. This provocative independent film posits, “As conscious
agents of evolution, we can redesign post-industrial society based on ecological
and spiritual principles to make a world that works for all?”
2012: Time for Change presents a refreshing and optimistic alternative to apocalyptic
doom and gloom and features leading experts, scientists and celebrities including;
Sting, Ellen Page, David Lynch, Barbara Marx Hubbard, Gilberto Gil, Dean Radin,
Buckminster Fuller, Paul Stamets, Shiva Rea, Bernard Lietaer, Terrence McKenna
, Ganga White and many more.
“While my book may have sparked the project, this amazing film is the
result of Joao’s incredible persistence and artistic vision. states Pinchbeck.
He adds, “Instead of a time of cynicism and destruction, 2012 could be
an epoch when people make a quantum leap in consciousness and unite to oppose
those rampant forces of militarism, corporate greed, and decadence that feed
parasitically on our ignorance. When we no longer see ourselves as passive victims,
we can become active participants in the creative process of evolution, and
build a world that our descendants will be proud to inherit."
Rather than breakdown and barbarism, 2012: Time for Change heralds the birth
of a regenerative planetary culture where collaboration replaces competition,
where exploration of psyche and spirit becomes the new cutting edge, replacing
the sterile materialism that has pushed our world to the brink of destruction.
Many progressive topics are explored in the film including: shamanism, yoga
and alternative spirituality, psychic phenomena, psychotropic medicine, ecological
design, permaculture, sustainability, and more.
2012: Time for Change is produced by Mangusta Productions in association with
Curious Pictures and Postmodern Times and is being distributed by Mangusta Productions
and Intention Media. Running Time: 86 minutes.
