The festival’s Director of Communications, Sandy Astudillo, said about CHANGE: “Thank you for sharing your work with us. It is wonderful to be able to screen such great documentaries with such an important message. It was indeed one of my favorites.”

“I have yet to go to Costa Rica,” says EJ Lim, “but what really amazes me about this award is how far reaching the message of CHANGE has been. I feel thrilled and honored.”

The film has also received awards in technical achievement from VISIONFEST 14, Tribeca, NY and numerous awards from the International Film Festival for Spirituality, Religion and Visionary 2013 in Jakarta, Indonesia.

CRIFF is dedicated to showcasing the brightest independent filmmakers from every corner of the world. This is truly an international event, where filmmakers from every country come together to meet, discuss their ideas and visions, and showcase their films in paradise.

Coming up on the International Day of Peace on September 21st, CHANGE: The LifeParticle Effect will be shown at the Awareness Film Festival at 4:00 pm in the Los Angeles, California area (exact location to be determined). Running from September 11th to the 21st, the Awareness Film Festival aims to bring “awareness and to open eyes to some of our world’s pressing issues: Ecological, Political, Health/Well Being and the Spirit.” In addition to films and filmmaker panels and Q&A sessions, the festival includes conscious art and music. It acts as a fundraiser for Heal One World, a non-profit that connects people in need with holistic and preventative healing modalities not covered by health insurance.
Ilchi Lee is in the process of producing a follow-up to CHANGE to explore the concepts in the film, especially those about the brain, further.
