Marketing blurb and trailer to follow...

This feature tells the captivating tale of Shadyac’s pursuit for truth and after a bike accident left him with Post Concussion Syndrome. Debilitated by the effects of that accident and having stared death in the face, Shadyac sets out on a quest to answer two questions: what is wrong with the world and what can we do about it.

Shadyac’s mesmerising documentary is a mix of interviews, animations and clips, featuring remarkable interviewees from the realms of science, philosophy and faith, including: Noam Chomsky, Archbishop Desmond Tutu, Coleman Barks, John Francis, Dean Radin, Daniel Quinn, Howard Zinn and David Suzuki, all of whom help sow the film’s thought-provoking, compelling fabric.

Delving into critical topics from human nature to our economy, I AM is a must-see documentary that instils a positive sense that change can be accomplished by simple acts on the individual level. Digging deeper than symptoms, Shadyac’s film magnifies the true cause of the world’s problems, and takes the audience on a journey of discovery leading us to the inspiring realisation that we all have the power to change the world.
