Ancestral Wisdom for Collective Healing a documentary film
The Eternal Song is a cinematic journey through timeless lands and their Indigenous cultures. Voices from around the world and across generations call us to witness the deep, ongoing scars left by colonization on lands and people, and the healing that comes through ancestral wisdom.

Entrusted with medicine stories, we grapple with colonial legacies, intergenerational trauma, our own fragmentation and the culture of separation. The film reveals how modernity has severed our connection to nature, each other, and the ancestral realm, while feeding us empty promises of salvation, unlimited consumption, economic growth, and individual happiness. Drawn into the intricate web of kinship and honoring the living presence of Mother Earth, we awaken a remembrance. A sacred dance comes to life and we begin to hear the eternal song of Life itself, calling us back to belonging.
There will be a Q&A with the filmmakers following the screening.
