Resources

Over the past year of sharing the film, we’ve found that it can bring up a lot for people, invoking questions, or opening areas of curiosity…So we’ve put this little list together.

It is by no means definitive, and its always growing – it’s more a starting point, based on the things that have inspired us on this journey.

If you feel you need support in a specific area, please contact us, and we’ll try to point you in the right direction.

Feel free to contact us if you have any additions….
