This film from the Soul Biographies Collection is on the nature and experience of gratitude. Importantly, the felt experience and not the idea. Set around an experience from the Spanish Civil War. With Julio Olalla.

‘… gratitude in so many ways is so dramatically missing in the world today. Without gratitude nothing is enough. Look what you have.‘

It is accompanied by the poem The Meaning of Cake. Concerning the consequence of too much.

The Film and Words are currently available for contributing subscribers who are supporting this universal human endeavor and its sustainability. This is the mission you’d be supporting - “two decades ago I set out to capture the Soul of the Human Race on film, so that we might see ourselves reflected in each other. So that we might come to remember that we belong to each other, and act accordingly. So that we might wake up.”

I would so appreciate your support in this exploration of the deep human interior.
