"Once we lived in peace"
- Dr. Marija Gimbutas
Anne, Scotland
"The docuseries is mind-blowing! I learned so much, but it also awakened me in a desire to know more. It made me realize how much knowledge and wisdom has been taken from women--about ourselves and our past--and how important it is that we reclaim it."
Louise, Sicily
"The discussions were empowering and inspiring. The various perspectives and experiences that the participants shared enriched and deepened my own take on the topic."
Dawn, Australia
"The docuseries is life changing and it was expansive to be able to digest it as a group, experience the different and valid reactions of the other students and be privileged to access knowledge that everyone should have
access to!"

Message from the Filmmaker
Dear women,
I am very grateful Cummari women have decided to dive into my series FROM THE GODDESS and embark on this journey to learn more about our role in ancient society.
I was blessed to meet over 38 experts on this topic who have dedicated their lives, some for over 50 years already, to discover and uncover knowledge that is not taught in school and for the most part rendered silent - because it questions the current societal form of patriarchy.
This body of work is the fruit of my last three years of research, traveling, and production as a one woman show and I hope to inspire you to manifest your projects, visions and dreams.
And most importantly - I wish this series will help you to remember the incredible herstory we share.

They asked intriguing questions and encouraged us to share our own perspectives and questions. They also brought so much to the discussion themselves as fascinating, curious women!" ~ past participant​​​
"Miche and Rayna were supportive, kind, intelligent and an excellent balance of life experiences to help us feel inclusive but not exclusive. ~ past participant​​​
