UNIVERSE STORY

Journey of the Universe: An Epic Story of Cosmic, Earth and Human Transformation
Client: The Thomas Berry Foundation

Journey of the Universe, a Northcutt co-production, is airing nationwide on PBS through mid-January.

Journey of the Universe is a dramatic and expansive film that reimagines the universe story and reframes the human connection to the cosmos. Created by a renowned team of scientists, scholars, and filmmakers, it was filmed in HD on the Greek island of Samos, the birthplace of Pythagoras. Journey is hosted by evolutionary philosopher Brian Thomas Swimme, whose stories awaken us to the beauty and complexity of our planet and offer an opportunity to respond to ecological and social challenges of our times.

The film was written by host, Swimme and historian of religions, Mary Evelyn Tucker, directed by Patsy Northcutt and David Kennard, and edited by Patsy Northcutt. A full list of film credits is available on the website.

Thomas E. Lovejoy, scientist and founder of the PBS series Nature says, "This is one of the most remarkable films I have ever seen."
