For The Next 7 Generations

Carole Hart 2008

In 2004, thirteen Indigenous Grandmothers from all for corners, moved by their concern for our planet, came together at a historic gathering where they decided to form an alliance: The International Council of Thirteen Indigenous Grandmothers. This is their story. Four years in the making and shot on location in the Amazon rainforest, the mountains of Mexico, North America, and at a private meeting with the Dalai Lama in India, For the Next 7 Generations follows what happens when these wise women unite. Facing a world in crisis, they share with us their visions of healing and a call for change now, before it’s too late. This film documents their unparalleled journey and timely perspectives on a timeless wisdom.

GLOBAL PEACE FILM FESTIVAL:

Mark your calendars for one of Orlando's most significant cultural events, the Global Peace Film Festival, held September 17 – 21, 2008. This acclaimed series celebrates movies and documentaries that set out to make a difference in the world.

The Global Peace Film Festival was established to utilize the power of the motion picture to further the goal of peace on earth.

The GPFF presents films from around the world and global discussions that highlight the power of this extraordinary medium as it relates to new peace issues. See films from around the world, attend educational panels, meet filmmakers and special guests and hear from local activists about their work.
