Ensoulment: A Diverse Analysis of the Feminine in Western Culture with filmmaker Loris Simon Salum

Ensoulment is a film is about finding your true self and how to connect to the feminine without losing the masculine. It’s about the challenge facing men and women today, to live a full and satisfying life as a complete (ensouled) human being.

This documentary film weaves an animated journey into the inner life of Loris (created by award winning animator Patrick Smith) with commentary and insights from an impressive list of experts and academics with roots in Jungian psychology—including Dr. James Hollis, whose books are on my shelves. Ensoulment has received a Golden Palm award at the International Film Festival of Mexico and recently won the Grand Jury Prize at the Barcelona International Film Festival.

In this interview, Loris talks about the major themes in the film and a few of the things that she learned along the way.
