In a Still Small Voice - A film about art, culture, and the loss of transcendence

Makoto Fujimura has to be one of the most inspiring and influential artists in my life that I look up to as a young artist. He founded "IAM" aka International Arts Movement, which is a network of artists working to inspire Human renewal and the "de-humanization" that's happening in the post-modern secularism of the West today. It's a movement which I'm a member and supporter of.
In term's of medium and aesthetic style Makoto's work could not be more different from the type of work I'm doing, but I definitely feel I share the same inspirations, motivations, and underlying beliefs which drive his beautiful art.

When I stumbled across this documentary which he took part in I knew it had to be interesting, but I had no idea it would be as powerful as it turned out to be...

if your an artist, a creative person, an appreciator of art, believer, non believer, or just a human being who genuinely cares about humanity and the state of the human soul, then you need to do yourself a favor and consider purchasing this film...
I guarantee you it will go beyond a simple inspiring documentary and prove to be something much more profound. If you feel the same way I do I'm guessing you'll pass it on to friends, colleagues and loved ones...
