For the Next 7 Generations

For the Next 7 Generations

In 2004, thirteen Indigenous Grandmothers from all four corners, moved by their concern for our planet, came together at a historic gathering, where they decided to form an alliance: The International Council of Thirteen Indigenous Grandmothers.

This is their story.

Four years in-the-making and shot on location in the Amazon rainforest, the mountains of Mexico, North America, and at a private meeting with the Dalai Lama in India, For the Next 7 Generations follows what happens when these wise women unite.

Facing a world in crisis, they share with us their visions of healing and a call for change now, before it’s too late.

This remarkable film documents the unprecedented journey and timeless vision of an extraordinary group of women whose wisdom will inspire you.  M.T.
