In his last film, Scared Sacred, director Velcrow Ripper journeyed to the ground zeros of the world in search of hope and spiritual strength.  His new documentary, Fierce Light, runs in the same vein, but focuses on the remarkable activists that Ripper encounters, men and women who advocate the compassionate, spiritual activism that he believes we, as humans, desperately need. 

 We're starting to gear up now for the big push to releasing Fierce Light in the movie theatres here in Canada, starting May 15.  Now, more than ever, we need everyone who is a fan of Fierce Light, and the message it represents of compassion in action, to get on board and get the word out. 

The opening weekend is the MOST CRUCIAL for any film, and so I urge you to come out and see it and encourage your friends to do the same. Other Canadian cities TBA.

By attending, you prove that audiences want more meaningful content on the big screen and help pave the way for more. Getting the word out is all due to the help from people like you, forwarding this email, telling their friends, and especially going to see the film!

 Here are some concrete things you can do:

~join the mailing list, and forward our updates over the next few weeks to your friends

~talk about it, blog about it, twitter about it, facebook it, myspace it, wherever you hang out on-line

~ post comments and reviews about the film on our blogs, and anywhere you see it reviewed or mentioned on-line.  Some key places to leave reviews or ratings:
