FIERCE LIGHT: WHEN SPIRIT MEETS ACTION
Maui Premiere!
A touching portrait of the Power of Righteousness and Love that has fueled the efforts of what Martin Luther King called "Love in Action," and Gandhi called "Soul Force".  It is the way of the Sacred Warrior, uncompromisingly nonviolent, with a power that radiates from the heart and outwards. It is that same grass roots spirit that swept Barack Obama into the White House, using the power of community - undeniably hopeful and full of possibility. Appearances by Thich Naht Hanh and Julia Butterfly Hill, among others.  Unrated.  90 min.
