Following on from the New Story Summit, hosted by the Findhorn Foundation in September 2014, we’re delighted to share that the New Story Film trailer has gone live on the New Story Film microsite and on social media, and I wanted to share with you the wonderful reception we have had within just the first few days.

The film will premiere in the Universal Hall and be live streamed as the Foundation’s gift to the world. We will announce the release date shortly.

In less than a week, 32 countries have signed up to screen the film with us. And here are the numbers of people we have reached so far:

• Microsite from FB – 3,900 +
• Facebook reach – 34,500 +
