Comments:
"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 other
around
the world to join in and embrace the love of all people, everywhere.
Spread
the word!"

"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.
Personally
this film lifted me up at a time when my world had completely
crashed.
It reminded me of the hope and beauty and gift that it is to be alive
at
such a time as this. A time with so much potential for healing and true
brotherhood.
It reminded me of the committment I have to do my best for my
childrens
sake and our future generations! !
Andrea Sadler has stepped up to
do
her part now let us do ours by spreading this beautiful message of peace!Ó

indigenous elders)
"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."

I
hope to see you all at the screening of my film and in the circle!
May
Peace Prevail!
Sincerely,
Andrea Sadler
