An experimental documentary about the remarkable Amanda Feilding.
This short film importantly records Lady Amanda Feilding's research, self-exploration, and controversial self-trepanation. Her intelligence, artistry, and comedy shine through during this intimate glimpse into her personal thoughts, stories, and footage.
Amanda was first introduced to LSD in the mid-1960s, impressed by its capacity to initiate mystical states of consciousness and heighten creativity, she quickly recognized its transformative and therapeutic power.
She famously trepened herself. (The act in which a hole is drilled into the skull). A symbol of altering consciousness, allowing the possibility of the heartbeat to be able to expand from the brain. (absolutely not advised)
Inspired by her experiences, she began studying the mechanisms underlying the effects of psychedelic substances and dedicated herself to exploring ways of harnessing their potential to cure sickness and enhance wellbeing.
In 1996, Amanda set up The Foundation to Further Consciousness, changing its name to the Beckley Foundation in 1998. And is known for her 'hidden hand' behind the renaissance of psychedelic science and her contribution to global drug policy reform.
Amanda helped generate the world’s first images of the brain on LSD, one of her long-standing ambitions.
Beckley Canopy Therapeutics was formed by Amanda and her son Cosmo with the Canadian cannabis producer Canopy Growth Corporation to conduct cannabinoid research and drug development. Particularly in treating pain, anxiety, and drug addiction. One aim is to reduce dependence on opioids in treating cancer-related pain.
Amanda's work continues founding Beckley Psytech with Cosmo, which is dedicated to helping patients suffering from neurological and psychiatric disorders by developing a pipeline of psychedelic compounds into licensed pharmaceutical medicines.
Ultimately, the goal of Amanda’s work is to make psychedelics and cannabis into approved medicines, so that they can be legally prescribed at clinics for those in need.

Becoming Who I Was
Regeneration
The coming of age and a heart-warming tale of a young Rinpoche's reincarnation and journey home.
Becoming Who I Was is a stunning presentation of strength, courage, and inner faith from Padma Angdu, his uncle, and his community. I have a son of a similar age, and I can not imagine him carrying such a weight and undertaking such a pursuit.
This coupled with the narrative of reincarnation, which fascinates me, makes this documentary a must-watch.
As a true story Becoming Who I Was leaves you with a fresh determination to face any challenge

A personal, scientific, and mystical exploration of Amazonian curanderismo.
"The song that calls you home” is a documentary about Ayahuasca and the tribe Shipibo. Western medicine has a lot to learn from this type of “mind-body” approach to healing. Also what I liked about this doc is the story of the Italian athlete who uses this practice to clarify his life choices and not for a pathology. The ontological application of Ayahuasca is also very important

The Troublemaker
Regeneration
Facing up to the climate crisis on a journey of self-discovery.
Roger Hallam was an English regenerative farmer who saw firsthand the floods that destroyed his crops. He founded 'Extinction Rebellion' to encourage environmental activists and normal people to practice civil disobedience to create awareness for the climate crisis. Some of the protests are super memorable, having spent many years in London to imagine parts of the city being bought to a standstill is quite astonishing.
