Film Producer’s statement: Through the film we intend the viewer to escape for 23 minutes and find themselves revitalized and honored in the space that they are at. Being cognizant of the climate of the world today we made great strides to show that there is strength and peace to be found within people and within the natural world – sometimes you just have to walk with your shadows for a while. The unique story and magic of The Woodland Alchemy is a journey that we are proud to share with those who struggle with their shadows, the film gives those shadows a face and to the viewer: the wisdom and strength to overcome their fears.
