Synopsis:
First Nation leader, Dennis Banks, with indigenous people from North America and Japan, were joined by volunteers from 14 countries on a ceremonial run finishing in Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
Native wisdom is woven with Japanese traditions on this remarkable physical and spiritual journey of a diverse group of all ages, who voyaged 4,000 km along the Sea of Japan to carry the simple message, that All Life is Sacred.
The film is a stunning inspirational portrait of individuals committed to promoting peace, respect for the earth and all life, and to sharing the rich cultural diversity of the human race.
A lyrical film, it reveals that the transformation of the individual ripples out to infuse the world with more consciousness. We can create the world we dream of.

Reviews
โ I hear everywhere, sure, I want peace, but how? The Sacred Run, the lotus and the feather, provides a map, a marvelous map indeed! Take your passion for peace, sprinkle it with your interests and culture in a way that seduces others around the world, to join in and embrace the love of all people, everywhere. Spread the word!โ
Patch Adams, MD, Founder of The Gesundheit Institute, Arlington, VA
โFew videos or films capture my attention as did Andrea Sadler's film, The Sacred Run, the lotus and the feather. Not only because of the subject matter but because of how it was filmed and edited. Andrea Sadler will be around making films for many years. I'm anxious to see her next project!"
Dennis Banks, AIM leader & Co-Founder of The Sacred Run & The Longest Walk 1 & 2
"The Sacred Run, the lotus and the feather" is one of most inspiring, powerful, awesome depictions of a sacred journey of hope, love and beauty."
Pamela Rickenbach, Founder of Blue Star Equiculture
"Not only is SACRED RUN a film that teaches and entertains, it is also a movie that takes you on a most inspiring physical adventure and then launches you out of the theatre or off the couch convinced that you can save the planet."
Ezra Soiferman, Filmmaker, (MAN OF GREASE, TREE WEEKS) Montreal, Quebec
โThe Sacred Run weaves together the "feather" of ancient Native American wisdom with the "lotus" of Buddhism and indigenous Japanese traditions showing that all people are one at heart -- that we can be united in community, while honoring diversity. It is a powerful call for peace and justice.
Manna Jo Greene, Program Director, Hudson Valley Sustainable Communities Network
โI was very honoured to be invited to your film. It was one of the greatest Native American films. You should be proud of yourself and your film.โ Donna aka Blackwolf Sittingup, Lakota
