The Hardest Thing I've Ever Loved: Creating a Transformative Culture (2020)

3

"The Hardest Thing I´ve ever loved" follows the lives of 5 young explorers through their journey of the 5 weeks Ecovillage Design Education program, which navigates today's challenges as opportunities to build a regenerative future for all.

The EDE (Ecovillage Design Education) at Schloss Glarisegg is a holistic educational program that encourages new ways of being and acting in the world, organically evolving as we enact fundamental changes. It is a 1-month practical community experience where people can find their peers and get the condensed wisdom of worldwide communities and pioneers in order to create a transformative culture in the world!

If you want to discover more stories and projects for a regenerative world, please visit The Great Relation's website: https://www.thegreatrelation.org/​. All of their films are free to watch, because their main goal is to make the vision of a regenerative culture accessible to a wider public. At the same time, our dream is to develop this project so it becomes our main occupation. If you feel resonance with our work, you can support this dream through a conscious donation. Thank you!

Films For Action is a library for people who want to change the world.

 

Our mission is to provide citizens with the knowledge and perspectives essential to creating a more beautiful, just, sustainable, and democratic society.

Films For Action was founded in 2006 by a few friends in Lawrence, Kansas, after realizing how essential healthy media is to a healthy democracy.

Over the last 15 years, we've reviewed and curated over 1,000 free documentaries and 4,000 short films, plus over 150 pay-per-view documentaries, spanning 34 topics related to changing the world.

During this time we've been able to reach tens of millions of people - not by owning a TV network or spending truckloads of cash on advertising, but because millions of awesome people keep sharing 'films for action' with their friends on social media - in particular, our 850,000 supporters on Facebook and 70,000 site members. 

One of the coolest things is, thanks to our patrons, our library is ad-free and 100% supported by member donations, while 99% of our library is free to access and always will be. The pay-per-view films on our site, of course, help support the filmmakers, and 90-100% of the revenue for PPV films hosted by us goes to the filmmakers. 

To thank our $5/mo patrons, we partner with filmmakers and distributors to provide access to a growing number of films that are normally pay-per-view. With just 23 highly curated films at the moment, it's basically a mini "Netflix for world changers," but its main function is to support the library as a whole.

If you'd like to know more, want to help out, or you're a filmmaker or distributor looking to collaborate, feel free to get in touch!

Cheers,
