FROM THE GODDESS
DOCUSERIES
OUT NOW
Over the past three years, I've created a significant body of work – a six-part documentary film series titled FROM THE GODDESS – exploring the concept of the Great Goddess. This project took me to 10 different countries where I engaged with 38 experts, including scholars, archaeologists, authors, artists, and priestesses. Through their insights, I aimed to uncover how matriarchal societies, centered around Goddess worship, thrived in peaceful coexistence for millennia until the emergence of Patriarchy 6,000 years ago, leading to dominance, conflict, and harm to our planet. My journey sought to discover the potential for peace, which, as it turns out, is an inherent aspect of our nature.

This episode is an introduction to the concept or the cosmology of the Great Goddess, female figurine finds, the peaceful matriarchal societies and the emergence of patriarchy.
This episode is a portrait about Dr. Marija Gimbutas, the influential archaeologist who was the first to define Goddess by the hundreds of finds of figurines and helped shape herstory.
This episode focuses on the Foremothers of the Women’s Spirituality Movemenent. Who were they and how were the beginnings of this social movement.
This episode showcases various forms of contemporary Goddess reverence: from temples, conferences, programs, the profession of priestessing - to actively protecting Mother Earth.
Female artists are still underrepresented. Goddess was and is a powerful way to express political issues. At the same time, female artist bring in important perspective in looking at herstory.
More and more women want to connect to their own roots. This episode deals with the loss of the European spiritual roots and looks at Goddess finds in the German speaking countries.
