"Every once in a while, a film comes along that can transform the way we live. A New We by the Austrian filmmaker Stefan Wolf is such a film..." - Will M. Tuttle, Ph.D., author, The World Peace Diet
The variety of situations and voices in A New We inspires hope for the future of humanity and all life on the planet. The lives shown here are more motivated by imagination, vision, respect and cooperation than by economic forces and social expectations. In these 10 communities, the creative solutions to many social, environmental and economic challenges exemplify the nearly infinite capacity for human-, community- and self-development.
It’s a film that enlightens, encourages and spreads hope – for a new world and A New We.
The FIC is proud to announce that it is the sole North American distributor of the English language DVD of A New We (in the NTSC format), a two-hour video created in 2010 by Austrian Stefan Wolf that profiles 10 different European communities with a core commitment to sustainability.
Talks about re-building cities and towns based on ecological principles for the long term sustainability, cultural vitality and health of the Earth's biosphere. This book describes the place of the city in evolution, nature and history. It focuses on the question of accessibility and transportation, and outlines design principles for the ecocity.
Throughout, this new edition is generously illustrated with the author's own inspired visions of what such rebuilt cities might actually look like.
