Editorial Reviews

Acclaimed filmmaker Velcrow Ripper sets out to discover the power that is released when spirituality and activism meet. Sparked by what Gandhi called “soul force” and Martin Luther King called “love in action,” Ripper spotlights remarkable individuals who are taking action from the heart. The film is the revelation of a new global movement of movements of positive, compassionate action. FIERCE LIGHT: WHEN SPIRIT MEETS ACTION illuminates what is possible when human beings are their absolute best...a human sunrise.

This review is from: Fierce Light: When Spirit Meets Action (DVD)

Part self-exploration by Velcrow Ripper, the director, and part exploration of activist events since 2000, this movie Fierce Light: When Spirit Meets Action is well worth watching AND owning. It's moving and profound, inspiring and informative...the best kind of "entertaining" pass-time for conscious or inquisitive beings. But it's beautifully shot and sounds great. And it's not a pass-time so much as it is an investment in awareness and self. Bravo Velcrow!

4.0 out of 5 stars so good news can make headlines!, August 21, 2009

This review is from: Fierce Light: When Spirit Meets Action (DVD)

This intimate comment on the nature of humanity - with warts! is personal and profound without being tiresome. Both Scared Sacred and Fierce Light offer something not often found in a film experience - wide eyed hope. The people whose lives are portrayed, including the famous, are action heroes in the right sense of the word. It is difficult to remain inert in light of their example. The young should see this film - it won't be wasted on them.

Fierce Light hits the deepest parts of our souls, voicing what so many of our hearts are aching to tell us. An extrodinary and extremely rare gift, if you are not changed, then it is not blood that runs through your veins.
