This is a fantastic poem that is brought to life by ND and crew. Propaganda was the perfect choice. ND’s strong vision and art direction have created a visual roller coaster ride that will not disappoint.

This film is very awe inspiring and emotionally driven. The sound design and overall look and feel of this film is very intricate and amazingly designed. This is worth watching more than once.
The narrator did an amazing job. Looking forward to more films like this.
Epic!

This film is amazing on so many levels. Direction, set dsign, performances. All top notch. I found myself lost in one sense as the archaic dialogue began. Jason Petty (AKA hip hop battle rapper poet artist Propaganda) delivers line after devestating line of greace and forgiveness spoken with such conviction that I began to comprehend excatly what was going on. Director N.D Wilson takes poetry/filmmaking and transforms it into something The Matrix or Tree of Life could never do. Actually ground you in a world full of profound mystery and at the same time make you want to love deeper and more intentionally. This is a short film masterpiece.
Like nothing anyone has seen before. Ever.

I saw a preview showing of this film at a conference two years ago and have been waiting since to be able to see it again. I found myself recommending it multiple times and then saying, "Well, um, it will be out sometime..."
This film is fascinating, eerie, weird in the best ways. Propaganda is an excellent choice for the narrator. The visuals are striking and memorable. Great to have it available.
More and Better Please

This film, which I have viewed several times, is an interesting piece of art. ND's artistic direction is as always very rich. The medium of film lends itself to a more contemplative piece. It would have been great if they would have shot this film in a more theatrical way. There was so much to see but every cut was so quick that it made me feel like I was reading the first line of each chapter of a very good book. Maybe that was the point, but in the future I'd like to to see what ND was with a more contemplative style. His sets are alive, he should explore them. I can't wait to see what ND has for us the future.
