Area23a and Umbrella Films  proudly announce the EUROPEAN LIVE STREAM PREMIERE OF “AWARE”

THURSDAY, MARCH 3RD AT 7:00 PM CET (6 PM London Time, 1 PM NYC)

Live post-screening discussion with Directors Frauke Sandig & Eric Black; Roland Griffiths, Ph.D., Director, Center for Psychedelic and Consciousness Research; and Monica Gagliano, Professor of Plant Behavior & Cognition, University of Sydney 

What is consciousness? Is it in all living beings? Why are we predisposed for mystical experience? And what happens when we die? 

With haunting cinematography, AWARE follows six of the world’s most brilliant researchers approaching the most mysterious of enigmas, consciousness, from radically different perspectives, from within and without: through high-tech brain research and Eastern meditation, by scientifically exploring inner space through psychedelic substances and delving deep into the consciousness of plants. Scientists are arriving at new insights – some which have been integral to Indigenous knowledge for millenia.

The European Live Stream Premiere of Aware brings a wide array of organizations and communities together to take a mind-blowing cinematic journey into the ocean of consciousness. By screening the film live across the globe, AWARE will establish a “collective connectedness” with the audience.  

Afterward, the audience will participate in a post-screening cinematic forum, where, after contemplating consciousness for themselves, they will have the opportunity to learn how they are truly interconnected with all things.
