This documentary takes an in-depth look at the witch hunts that swept Europe just a few hundred years ago. False accusations and trials led to massive torture and burnings at the stake and ultimately to the destruction of an organic way of life. The film questions whether the widespread violence against women and the neglect of our environment today can be traced back to those times.

NFB's Women and Spirituality Collection

This documentary series investigates women's spirituality from ancient times to the present, tracing the current environmental crisis and prevailing attitudes towards women to the loss of the ancient goddess culture that encourages respect for the earth and the female, and to such events as the witch burnings that swept Europe just a few hundred years ago.
