Why Go: For the Next 7 Generations follows what happens when thirteen indigenous grandmothers from all over the world unite. Originating from all four corners, these wise elders, shamans and medicine women first came together in 2004 at an historic gathering in upstate New York. Moved by their concern for a world in crisis, they share with us their visions of healing and a call for change. This film documents their unparalleled journey and timely perspectives on a timeless wisdom.
There will also be a reception with the film's director and producer afterwards at The Blue Bunny.
