The Heart Revolution

Your heart is much more than you think.

The poetic science documentary THE HEART REVOLUTION takes viewers on a journey through life, from before our first heartbeat to beyond the last, playfully exploring what our heart is all about.

In every chapter of life, from pregnancy to birth, learning to walk and talk, going to school and using our brain, falling in love, becoming parents, to growing old and dying, our heart plays an overlooked yet existential role.

Director Biography - Benedikt SP Just

At age 13, director Benedikt became obsessed with finding the secret of life and worked towards becoming a theoretical physicist to deliver a unified field theory. At 16 he unconsciously began to realize that no amount of knowledge would help him grasp the mystery of life and he fell into a long, dark night of the soul.

Exploring diverse spiritual traditions, his heart took him beyond the popular Eastern and Western fulfilment paradigms. He now shares his findings through films, music, articles and collages. The rest of his life is dedicated to delivering a new story of life based on a redefinition of emotions and the human heart.

Director Statement

Scientists delivered strong evidence that the human heart is much more than a pump.

In a time where worldwide celebrated technologists propose that the next step in human evolution is to merge with AI and machines, I think realizing the heart's purpose is an existential necessity.

What if a return to paradise doesn't require more technology but our dedication to cultivating our flowering hearts? Enheartenment, being in a state of a flowering heart, goes far deeper and beyond the traditional state of enlightenment.

If you understand the implications and do the math, you'll see that redefining the human heart will likely increase the quality of life for billions of people worldwide.
