Awakening to Life:
A Documentary About 5-MeO-DMT and Transformation
This past August, we filmed something extraordinary at Enfold. Six people, all experienced with psychedelics, moving through a five-day Awakening to Life intensive together. People in real life transitions, digging deep to figure out what comes next.
Our small crew followed the entire experience and captured over 70 hours of footage. What emerged was remarkable. Themes of transition, purpose, and dharma. The trust that builds when a group commits to going this deep together. The breakthroughs, the releases, the way people hold each other through it. Beautiful human stories.
Pam, Awakening to Life Documentary Guest"It just felt like I was uncovering something… And I think that something was me."
Why This Film Matters
5-MeO-DMT has hit the mainstream conversation. More people are hearing about 5-MeO-DMT and are curious to learn more. This is an important moment to show this medicine in the highest possible light.
We want to tell beautiful human stories that show what’s actually possible when this work is held with proper care and intention. We hope this film will raise the standards of what people expect when it comes to facilitation in transformation spaces.
