Signs Out of Time

October 27th, 2008  |  by Alive Mind Education  |  published in Signs Out of Time

 Signs Out of Time examines the life and work of world-renowned archaeologist Dr. Marija Gimbutas. Drawing from her extensive knowledge of mythology and linguistics, Lithuanian-born Gimbutas uncovered the life-affirming and goddess-worshiping civilizations of pre-historic “Old Europe.” Weaving together footage of Gimbutas herself, as well as interviews with her supporters and critics, Signs Out of Time reveals a visionary scholar whose theories challenged the “establishment” of her time and influenced a generation of scholars, feminists, and social thinkers.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

“Archaeological materials are not mute. They speak their own language. And they need
to be used for the great source they are to help unravel the spirituality of those of our
ancestors who predate the Indo-Europeans by many thousands of years.”

- Marija Gimbutas

“Through an understanding of what the Goddess was, we can better understand
nature and we can build our ideologies so it will be easier for us to live.”

- Marija Gimbutas

Much of the entertaining Hippie Masala consists of charming reminiscences from the quirky quartet (as well as a pair of voluble South African twins who’ve also taken up residence in India), backed by footage of their day-to-day lives. Recommended.
-Video Librarian November/December 2008

A poignant and serious meditation on human psychology, Protagonist is highly recommended. Editor's Choice.
-Video Librarian September/October 2008

Brilliantly filmed under fairly difficult circumstances, Living Goddess will definitely appeal to anyone with an interest in Eastern religions. Recommended.
-Video Librarian September/October 2008

Some believers will no doubt refuse to watch these conversations, while others may feel that their faith can only be strengthened by confronting the strongest arguments against it—and The Atheism Tapes definitely delivers the latter. Highly recommended.
-Video Librarian July/August 2008

Both as a lesson in law and as an entertaining personality profile, Pledge of Allegiance Blues is highly recommended.
-Video Librarian May/June 2008
