Movie Reviews of Living Temples - Sacred Land
Movie Review: A travelogue for the soul...
Summary: 5 Stars
Perhaps the most insidious drift in our social consciousness during at first the industrial revolution and now the information age has been our growing spiritual estrangement from our own earth. We have elevated rational thought to gain short-term social benefits and shunned our mystical connection with the land we live on. We have paved it with concrete and punched oil wells through its skin to build our economies. Now we have sensed the errors of our ways, but we remain locked in a quest for a rational solution. However, it may well take more than our rational thought to heal the earth from the insults we have visited upon it. We will need both our rationality and our heart sense in this ultimate challenge.
Jan Nickman has created a film, "Living Temples", which searches for our lost spiritual connection with the land. David Lanz and Gary Stroutsos have created a score that pulls from ancient connections and energizes for present. Their film does not dictate nor does it preach. It does not romanticize the past. However, it does remind us on some subliminal level, of what we have come to ignore. It does ask questions of the heart. The questions that it asks are the heart sense questions that we will need to heed as we move towards an uncertain future.
