Documentary

Donohue's engaging documentary chronicles the process of co-creation of a sacred space in southwest Ohio. It portrays the earthbased, spiritual underpinning of this work with images and language of ceremony by Kaylynn Sullivan TwoTrees, Shawnee Temple Women and spiritual elders from the African American, Appalachian and Native American communities.

The Trail of Hope is about history as remembered by the descendants of the landscape of the Ohio River Valley from stories passed down.

Appropriate for classroom and self-study in areas of theology, earthbased spirituality, Native American studies, art, architecture, women's studies, anthropology, archaeology and cultural studies.
