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.

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.

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!
