Documentary Film Neohumanism: Path of Awakening and Benevolence
Sid Vishvamitra Jordan, Executive Director
The documentary film, Neohumanism: Path of Awakening and Benevolence, was filmed at the Tonrak school and children’s home in Thailand in March and early April. Kevin Peer, our cinematographer, has been able to film some new migrating children arriving from Burma into Didi Ananda Devamala’s care at the children’s home. Filming there captured the loving care that many of these traumatized children receive at the home and school. There is also an active rescue center for over 80 dogs. Filming ended in Thailand on April 9 and continued at the Ananda Kalyani Master Unit in Portugal for April and May where a large reforestation grant is being implemented at the master unit. The new forest school and environmental projects at this master unit offer a strong ecological theme for the film. This documentary will continue filming in Africa, Central America and South America before final editing and streaming as a documentary series and short films on a Youtube channel in 2025.
