August 11, 2015 replay from January 13, 2015. Writer and filmmaker, Marie-Rose Phan-Le, has taken the heroine’s journey to a new level during an 11 year journey to document the shamanic healing arts from Asian cultures. Her documentary film, Talking Story: One Woman’s Quest to Preserve Ancient Spiritual and Healing Traditions precedes her new memoir by the same title. The quest during filming was to capture the story and ancient practices of healers from Hawaii to the Himalayas before their oratory culture completely died out. In it, she humanizes the fight for cultural preservation and the importance of maintaining Perceptual Diversity. Her memoir chronicles her personal journey of healing and self-discovery during the making of her film.
Marie-Rose Phan-Lê is an apprentice healer born in Vietnam and educated in the west. She has more than 25 years of experience in film and television production, and bridged traditional and new media when she became one of the first producers to create Interactive Television Content for the Microsoft Corporation. She also works as a media consultant on projects that match her goals of promoting global and cultural awareness and is currently developing several TV series projects.
