Waking Up - An open source movie about a positive future

http://www.wakingupmovie.com/

This is a scene from the (hopefully) coming movie 'Waking Up'. It is about Ben, who froze himself down in 2010, in the hope that humanity once might be able to thaw him up and cure his disease.

And this is exactly what happens. In the year 2110, the world has gone through massive changes towards the positive. Both technology and human values has developed into a whole new world, positive in all aspects for humanity. One of the aspects is that money and property is gone, and people do things for other reasons than hoarding wealth. Waking Up is about Ben's experiences in this world and the difficulties he faces in waking up to this new reality.

In the scene, Ben is walking in the woods with his newly acquainted guide, Aweena. He has only been awake for a few days, after several weeks of curing and restituting his body while he was asleep. He is a bit confused, and can't really understand what has happened. He feels somewhat attracted to this new world and to Aweena, but at the same time he has trouble believing it is real.

The movie will be an 'open source' movie where others can contribute. The website for the movie will be up at http://www.wakingupmovie.com/ during the summer of 2011. It is a movie about a positive future for humantiy, and hopefully, humanity will contribute in writing it and making it real. The movie needs a full script, and a lot of CGI, and basically every thing else at this moment. :)

[noddwyd]

A film about wishful thinking......

[gutzbramah]

@noddwyd Yup. If anything has ever changed the world, it is wishful thinking. But it's more than that, it is an active transformation of our mindset and values, and showing how a positive future actually can be like.

Great clip and this is just the world that implementation of an Equal Money System will bring where dignified life for all humans, animals and plants will be guaranteed, all resources shared among all living beings equally and expression of life supported fully. Research and support "Equal Money" political agenda and "Desteni I Process" transformation courses that will assist in speeding up the creation of future that we all want > equalmoney(dot)org > desteniiprocess(dot)com

@tzmmalaysia there will always be positive and negative. The pendulum is always swinging. I don't see the negative in this, hence my comment.

@noddwyd going to the moon and communication over thousands of miles in split seconds were wishful thinking too... also, stone age, dark age, industrial age were part of human evolution. How is it wishful thinking for humans to accept the next step of evolution? Money is not natural, they are just pieces of printed papers, some round metals or some numbers on electronic screens. Time to evolve.
