Summary: In this episode of Conscious Bridge Radio, host Mark Gilbert interviews filmmaker Cynthia Lukas who along with her partner, Kell Kearns, through their company "Heaven on Earth Productions" have produced many popular documentaries including the well-known Rumi Returning and the recent release on the growing interfaith movement, Globalized Soul. Cynthia describes how she got into making films and offers some guidance for individuals interested in making documentaries.
