The Twelve

We have overused nature's resources, leading to the extinction of thousands of species each year and risking our own survival.

United by a powerful spiritual vision to address humanity's destructive path, twelve Indigenous elders from global wisdom traditions convened at the United Nations in New York.

Setting aside cultural differences, they crafted a new framework for humanity's future, sharing ancient wisdom and rituals that emphasize our deep connection with nature and each other. Their teachings offer guidance on how to live in harmony with the Earth.

The film follows their historic journey and the transformative energy of their three-day gathering, underscoring the urgent need for change. By embracing and honoring Mother Earth, they believe we can secure abundance and happiness for all.
